26.01.2018
As the part of mini-Banat tour, Mr Mladen Šarčević, the Minister of Education, visited Vršac on Wednesday, the 24th January 2018.
– We talked a lot about the total investments in educational institutions as well as about forming a new network of schools, which will include local governments as they have to give us their own proposals and solutions. Some other reforms, such as enhanced use of sports in teaching, compulsory teachers and directors training and implementation of new legal solutions were also presented to them – said Mr Šarcević after visiting “Borislav Petrov Braca” Gymnasium, “Mladost” Primary School and SMATSA Aviation Academy.
Satisfied with what he saw at the academy, where currently 132 students from all over the world are being trained in contemporary conditions, the Minister expressed his wish to include this school in a “Study in Serbia” new program of the Ministry of Education, which will start with its promotion in incoming days.
– Countries that used to send their students to our studies are interested in it again. So we are now making catalogues in which 24 study programs will be presented in English language. In the second round we will also include private faculties – added Mr Šarcevic.
It is planned that catalogues and internet presentations should be promoted at International Education Fairs. At the same time, the Minister reminded that Republic of Serbia has not been presented at these fairs so far and many opportunities have been missed.
