Panamanian Deputies Prepare Project to Reform Education Law

As a member of the Assembly, we are reaching more points in the country, playing a very important role as a deputy and president of the Education Commission; that of proposing, building, and establishing a roadmap, a framework for building an educational public policy such as educational reform, said Bloise. He pointed out that the commission is working to present the country with a document on what an updated and modern Organic Law on Education should have. In this sense, he said that the project is already being finalized with the contributions from the citizenry to be presented to the legislative plenary, and that it will be filed in the Education, Culture and Sports Commission in the last week of April. During the working tour held this Friday, April 10, members of the Education Commission visited the Professional and Technical Institute (IPT) Jesús Héctor Gallegos, in the district of Santa Fe, Veraguas. Likewise, the Pedro Arrocha Graell School and the La Estrella School, located in Santiago de Veraguas, were also visited.
