Study In Brunei-Recognised Institutions Says Education Perm Sec

Bandar Seri Begawan – Parents intending to send their children for further studies abroad are advised to choose institutions which are recognised by the Government of His Majesty the Sultan of Brunei.

The reminder was made by Dato Sheikh Haji Adnan, Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Education, while officiating the Study in Australia Exhibition 2005.

Dato Sheikh Haji Adnan in his opening address said Brunei places great importance to education and every effort is made to ensure that the standard and quality of education provided in its education institutions are of high standards.

Brunei's attention is not only focused on its ability to provide quality infrastructure, facilities, curriculum and teachers but its concern is also focused on the country's education system.

He also said the introduction of an integrated curriculum in the primary schools will help achieve the country's aims in producing citizens that are balanced in their development.

Apart from visiting the exhibits of the various institutions from Australia, visitors can also attend seminars being organised in conjunction with the education fair.

The Ministry of Education's statistics for Brunei students studying abroad shows that from 2000 to 2005, more than 400 students have opted to study in Australian Educational institutions.

This number is second only to the United Kingdom.

The fair represents Australia's commitment to supporting a broad choice for young Bruneians as they embark on the next exciting step in their education.
