During his working visit to Kirovohrad region, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with the participants of the second session of the regional educational conference “Serpneva-2024”.
The Head of State thanked the teachers for preserving the opportunity for children to receive education during the war, which is one of Ukraine's priorities.
“We are very grateful that despite all the losses caused by the war, we have neither lost you nor our educational space. I also thank you for educating our children, our future, in a very correct, humane, patriotic way,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
According to him, state and local authorities pay a lot of attention to the organization of offline education. The President emphasized that the creation of security infrastructure for educational institutions is one of the most urgent issues today.
In particular, Volodymyr Zelenskyy instructed Minister of Education and Science Oksen Lisovyi to find a solution for the provision of shelters for educational institutions in non-frontline and non-border regions.
The issue of the need for school buses must also be resolved, in particular, by compensating for the resources transferred to the frontline.
Another pressing issue is increasing the number of cooks to implement the School Nutrition Reform initiated by First Lady Olena Zelenska.
