This year we plan to completely renovate 100 training and practical centres in vocational education institutions: Denys Shmyhal

At its meeting on 25 October, the Government adopted decisions aimed at developing the education sector, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said.

“This year, the Government, together with partners and communities, plans to completely renovate 100 training and practical centres in vocational education institutions. New workshops for vocational schools mean a new quality of education and new opportunities for students of these institutions,” the Prime Minister stressed.

Thus, the Government has changed the procedure for granting subventions from the state budget in terms of co-financing. According to Denys Shmyhal, this will speed up the completion of all projects and improve the quality of work.

“The second educational decision is to create an electronic safety passport for an educational institution. Each of our schools should have such a passport, because for us the safety of children is a top priority,” the Head of Government stressed.

According to the Prime Minister, the electronic passport, which will be available to police and rescue workers, will help create a safer educational environment and correct existing problems in educational institutions.
