Revolution in education in new century

Date: 29/11/2024 | Source: Pyongyang Times | Read original version at source

The educational revolution in the new century is being pushed dynamically.

The goal of this revolution is to train all the students into reliable builders of a powerful country and make all the people well versed in science and technology so as to turn the DPRK into an educational power in the 21st century.

The DPRK has always attached importance to the educational issue.

The issue of children’s pencils was put on the agenda for the meeting of the provisional government, which was established immediately after Korea’s liberation. The education work continued to be carried on even during the Fatherland Liberation War in the 1950s, which can be said to be a showdown between rifle and A-bomb.

The DPRK regards education as a more important state affair at the present time which calls for making a leap forward by dint of science and guaranteeing the future by dint of education.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un set forth the policy of bringing about a radical turn in education in the new century in his work "Let Us Glorify Ours as the Country of Education and a Power of Talents by Bringing about a Revolution in Education in the New Century" in August 2014.
