New $930M Tuschen Secondary School to facilitate night-classes for GOAL students

The new $930 million Tuschen Secondary School on the East Bank of Essequibo will facilitate night classes for individuals studying through the Guyana Online Academy of Learning (GOAL) scholarship programme.

President Dr Mohamed Irfaan Ali made the announcement at the commissioning ceremony of the Tuschen Secondary School on Wednesday, noting that this feature will be established at other secondary institutions.

“I have asked [Minister] Priya Manickchand to look at the secondary schools, including Tuschen here, and for us to outfit it with full technology so that those who are registered in the GOAL programme can come here in the evening and study and complete their diplomas and degrees,” President Ali explained.

The president further revealed that space will be dedicated at Tuschen Secondary with proper internet access for the evening session.

More than 39,000 Guyanese have benefitted from free GOAL scholarships since 2020.
