The Minister for Education and Member for Gumine, Dawa Lukas Dekena, recently made a significant announcement declaring Waigani Christian Academy as an institution to facilitate teacher training for Early Childhood Learning.

He said this declaration highlights the government’s commitment to improving the education sector, particularly in the training and development of early childhood educators.

With this new status, the academy will be able to offer specialized courses and programs tailored to equip aspiring teachers with the necessary skills and knowledge to effectively educate and shape the future generation.

WCA Founder Benjamin Mul, pointed out that this move by Minister Dekena is a significant step towards enhancing the standard of early childhood education in the country and ensuring that every child receives a solid foundation for their academic journey.

The Minister’s commitment to allocate five million kina towards ensuring that early childhood teachers are adequately trained before being sent out for their mission is a crucial step towards improving the quality of education for young children in the country.

“This investment will not only benefit the teachers by equipping them with the necessary skills and knowledge, but it will also have a positive impact on the development and well-being of the children they will be teaching.

“Properly trained early childhood teachers play a vital role in shaping the early years of a child’s education and setting a strong foundation for their future learning,” Dekena said.
