KAMPALA – The Teacher Education Symposium was officially opened on Wednesday, February 26 by the First Lady and Minister of Education and Sports, Janet Museveni at Silver Springs Bugolobi.

The 3-day event is guided by the theme; Quality Teachers for the 21st Century.

Ms Museveni in her opening remarks welcomed and thanked everyone for their efforts towards the development of the education sector in Uganda.

She urged teacher educators to ensure that the teachers they train learn some values such as honesty, kindness, humility, patience and self-control.

The minister also called upon the teacher educators to ensure that the curriculum is delivered according to its aspirations because it is competence-based and it builds on from primary school curriculum that was revised a few years ago.
