Higher Standards and Accountability Drive Nursery Education Reform

Guyana is reforming its nursery education system by raising standards for teachers, strengthening accountability, and ensuring every child gains core skills in literacy, numeracy, and writing by year two. Parents are encouraged to play an active role, while headteachers closely monitor classroom performance. Since 2020, 54 new nursery schools have been built, improving access nationwide. This focus on quality, collaboration, and infrastructure ensures children receive a strong educational foundation, fostering equal opportunities for lifelong learning and national progress.
