School of Education Philosophy

An educational system that is committed to the cultural, social, economic, political, peaceful and equitable development of its society is dependent upon the availability of competent teachers who embrace the joys and the challenges of ensuring that all students in their care are supported in their development and are empowered through education to contribute to the overall development of The Bahamas and the Global Community. The Education of Teachers is therefore critical to the nation building agenda. Charged with the responsibility of preparing teachers for the twenty first century Bahamas, The School of Education facilitates the learning and development of committed and compassionate teachers, who are able to function in an archipelagic country and the global environment, through excellence in teaching and learning, scholarship and service.

In the School Of Education Philosophy I appreciate the provisions of scholarships.
