Yesterday, Nicolette Henry, Minister of Education and Antoine Joly, Ambassador of the French Republic discussed what could be done to improve and expand the teaching of French in schools with a view to exchanges for students and teachers between the two nations.
Also discussed was the possibility of co-operation for Guyanese teachers to go to France to teach while improving their knowledge of French especially since Haiti is a member of CARICOM, according to a release from the Ministry of Education.
Joly added, “It is my hope and plans to have Guyana send assistant teachers to teach English and at the same time improve their interest in French through government relations.”
