Statement from the Minister of Education at the World's Biggest Lesson

There’s a series of exciting activities planned for Action Week and the World’s Biggest Lesson in Sierra Leone:

  • Officials are going back to school
  • A symposium on ‘Quality Education to End Exclusion’
  • A float parade with school children across the country.  At each event stakeholders and decision makers have been invited to make statements and re-commitment to the Education for All goals.
  • A breakfast meeting with the Minister of Education

What happened in 2007?

All regions took part in the Action Week’s activities.  Panel discussions on education were aired on Radio Maria, Mackneh and the local stations. And 1,500 students marched with their parents and teachers to the Wusum Sports complex where they addressed the government, education officials and other stakeholders.  The Province’s Senior Education Assistant Secretary congratulated the organizers of the week for all they had done to put education at the top of the agenda and raising huge public awareness.
