Entry Nineteen

Education in Trinidad and Tobago is backward and underdeveloped. To begin with, the education system focuses more on memorization than on critcial thinking. It is also lacking in terms of the use of technology in the classroom not only for students but also teachers as grades and reports are still handwritten. Also, subject offerings are not standadrized as some schools have more subject offerings than others. In terms of infrastructure, it can be a lot better. Schools, in my opinion, should also be zoned in order to facilitate a comprehensive bus system and also to reduce traffic.
