The 300 “Schools of Future” run by the ICT Division would start using the “Kumon” curriculum, a home-based education system by next year, said State Minister for ICT Zunaid Ahmed Palak.
Toru Kumon, a Japanese citizen, founded the Kumon education network with the goal of fostering students’ independence and intellectual prowess.
Kumon’s materials incorporate methods for introducing new content in a way that enables students to learn without directly being taught even after advancing beyond the school grade level.
Palak was speaking at the prize distribution ceremony among Kumon gold medal winners at Brac CDM Centre in Birulia of Savar.
State Minister for Cultural Affairs KM Khalid, Ambassador of Japan Ito Naoki, and BRAC Executive Director Asif Saleh were present at the event.
