Haiti - Baccalaureate : Visit of an inclusive examination center receiving disabled candidates
As part of a series of visits to some examination centers for the first day of the baccalaureate exams (Friday, July 1st https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-36852-haiti-flash-baccalaureate-exams-2022-change-of-date-official.html ) 3 executives from the Ministry of National Education : Dr. Jacques Abraham, Chief of Staff to the Minister of Education, Joseph Job Maurice, General Coordinator of the Education and Quality Department and Miguel Fleurijean, Director of Secondary Education, went to observe how the exms took place at the examination center "Adventist Institute Bible Auditorium" at Espace Lavo (Lalue zone).
This inclusive Examination Center which eliminates barriers between candidates, for which Jean Henry Charles Juste and Gyslaine Guerrier are in charge, receives visually impaired candidates, hard of hearing candidates, candidates with reduced mobility (wheelchair), but also candidates in full physical and mental capacity.
For Miguel Fleurijean, it is a good signal that the Ministry is sending to the rest of society by setting an example for several years with this examination center which has advanced the idea that the school grants all students the same consideration whatever their physical or mental problems.
It is good to remind candidates with special needs that they benefit from the support of certain Ministry technicians made available.
