Education ministry selects texts for non-Georgian schools
The Georgian Ministry of Education and Science on Thursday sent
non-Georgian textbooks that comply with Georgian education standards
to the non-Georgian state schools of Kakheti.
Deputy Minister Temur Samadashvili told Prime-News that up to now the
non-Georgian schools of Georgia used to conduct their teaching
process with textbooks from Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan and often
their content did not comply with the teaching plan of the Georgian
education
system.
The textbooks will be delivered to all non-Georgian schools of
Georgia by August 30.
For the first time this year all the 50,000 pupils of Armenian and
Azeri schools will receive textbooks in the Georgian language free of
charge.
The provision of textbooks by the Ministry of Education and Science
is the first step in the program for involving the non-Georgian
population of Georgia; within the framework of the program there are
vacancies in the positions of the teachers of Georgian language.
