The minister’s remarks came as he met on Thursday a delegation from the Decent Life Foundation to discuss aspects of co-operation between the Ministry and the Foundation.
During the meeting, the minister presented a number of files that are included in the ministry’s agenda, with the objective being to improve and advance the educational process at various stages and grades in order to achieve the state’s goals in the field of education in general.
