English In Schools

Professor M Zahidul Haque, Chairman, Department of Agricultural Extension & Information System, SAU,
Recently, the education minister inaugurated the 'English In Schools' (EIS), a programme jointly launched by The Daily Star and Aktel to promote English language teaching at secondary schools across the country. The programme includes, publication of teaching materials on English language, social and health issues, distribution of complementary copies of DS to selected schools, etcetera. Appreciating the initiative the education minister assured all-out support to EIS programme and said-“This programme will greatly help the students in learning English”. Meanwhile the minister suggested involving local educated people in the project-cycle for better results. We heartily congratulate the initiators of EIS and wish it grand success.
