The Ministry of Education recognised two hundred and twelve (212) early-career teachers at a graduation ceremony on Tuesday 22 September 2026, marking their successful completion of the Teacher Induction Programme.
This training programme bridges theory and practice equipping early career educators with the knowledge, skills and competencies needed to support students in today’s education landscape. In doing so, the Ministry of Education ensures that teachers are prepared to adapt the curriculum to meet the needs of students, integrate technology into the learning process and guide their classrooms with confidence.
Dr. The Honourable Micheal R. Dowlath, Minister of Education, delivered the feature address. Minister Dowlath encouraged teachers to be careful stewards of the young minds entering their classrooms. “Every day, a child with a future enters your classroom. That future may arrive confidently or sit quietly at the back of the room. The opportunity to transform a child’s life is both a profound privilege and an enormous responsibility. As early career educators, your task is to recognise possibility and nurture it.”
