Sanikidze held meetings in Samtskhe-Javakheti speaking about the
reforms in the Ministry envisaging improved options for professional
development and career growth of teachers.
Representatives of the teaching staff of the local university as
well as directors of schools from rural communities took part in
the meetings.
Given the fact that the region is settled by national minorities,
the meetings focused on the benefits the teachers can get during the
reforms in the system, the Georgian Ministry of Science reports.
Earlier, the teachers of comprehensive schools didn't take qualifying
exams in their mother tongue which affected their professional
activities and motivation, the Ministry stressed.
Now, within the new policy of professional growth of teachers,
teachers of schools in regions populated with national minorities can
have facilitated options of studying the Georgian language. They will
also take advanced training in their mother tongue.
Also, bilingual teachers will be given new opportunities, the
Ministry notes.
All the programs will be available from the new academic year, in
the University of Samtskhe-Javakheti as well.
