Officials in the education sector and educators across the country give priority to bridging the gap in education level between cities and rural villages and direct efforts to it.
Hwang Chol Myong, department director of the Education Commission, said that according to the detailed organization by the commission, the central teaching training school and provincial, city and county training schools and excellent educators in the cities went down to rural schools to help their teachers prepare lessons and enhance their qualifications from the beginning of the year.
Last year members of the central teaching training school went to Minam Senior Middle School in Sukchon County to set an example in the work of reducing the disparities in education level between cities and the countryside. This year they also offered both material and moral assistance to Paeksong Senior Middle School in Phyongsong in its effort to improve the education level such as the drafting of teaching documents, introduction of new teaching methods and improvement of teaching abilities of its teachers.
The instructors of the Taedonggang District teachers in-service training school positively helped teachers of rural schools in Sunan District give lessons according to school types and subjects several times on the spot after fully grasping the qualifications of teachers and school performance of students in detail. And they sent over 8 200 pieces of teaching aids of various kinds, more than 60 videos of model lessons and many reference books for education, offering real help to teachers of rural schools in education.
After grasping the situations of rural schools, teachers of South Phyongan Province conduct a variety of activities to transfer educational successes, experience and knowledge to teachers of rural schools through various forms.
“Thanks to the tireless efforts of officials and teachers in the educational sector across the country, the qualifications of many teachers at rural schools have been enhanced and the quality of education at them has improved a step higher this year,” said Hwang.
