SUB-REGIONAL STUDENT ATTITUDE
DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOP
St. Kitts, March 22, 2000
REMARKS By
Head, OERU- Lorna Callender

Around each child in the OECS there is a circle of projects ranging from the physical to the
behavioral. These projects are initiated and coordinated by the Education Reform Unit and are
designed so as to make educational improvement in all the OECS member states continuous,
relevant and meaningful.
In doing this we are fulfilling the mandate of the OECS Ministers of Education whose meeting in
1990 led to the commissioning of a Task Force and a resulting document Foundations for the
Future. The 65 strategies suggested in this document direct us in the selection of our priorities
when dealing with the reform of education in the OECS.
