Minister Parag visited the region, where she inspected schools and the progress for the new school being built at Jawalla. She told the teachers that the government remains steadfast in its commitment to enhancing the quality of life for residents of hinterland regions.
“Hopefully, before the year is out, there are certain things that the headmistress has spoken to us about in relation to the school and we will look to see how we can be able to help you to get the internet or internet access at the school.
“I know that is something that is important for you,” Minister Parag said.
She assured that the ministry will undertake that task to ensure that the students at the school have access to information.

Her remarks were directed to the students who are preparing for their second Mock Exams in March, as they prepare for the National Grade Six Assessment in April.
