Region Two Chairperson Vilma De Silva has informed members of the Regional Democratic Council (RDC) that the region was warranted $40,402,170 to improve education delivery in the region via the procurement of furniture.
Speaking to her fellow councillors at the last statutory meeting, the Regional Chairperson said that education is a priority and it is the responsibility of the Ministry of Education through the Region’s Department of Education to ensure that children are comfortable. De Silva said that teachers had requested more chairs and tables, especially in light of measures to address the spread of COVID-19.
