Palabras del Secretario de Educacion Publica en la reunion anual de directores de education federal e inspectores generales en los estados que se rigen por el calendario "A". (Address by the Minister of Education at the Annual Meeting of Directors of Federal Education and Inspectors General in Calendar "A" States).
Yanez, Agustin
This document is an English-language abstract (approximately 1,500 words) of a speech by the Mexican Minister of Education at an annual educators meeting. The Minister dealt with the administration and quality of education, the role of the directors and the duties towards them of the inspectors, and the main features of the reform of national education now being undertaken by the Ministry. The subject and the occasion gave the speech national significance as a policy statement to guide the officials responsible for directing and supervising education throughout the country. He told those assembled that a working group had been set up under the aegis of the National Technical Council for Education to examine those aspects of the reform that directly concerned the Ministry and any others that it should consider within the framework of comprehensive educational planning. Reform means a thoroughgoing social reform needed globally, but adopted to Mexican conditions. Quality should be the first concern of Mexican teachers and administrators. Curricula should be examined for their true educational potential. School inspectors have a major responsibility for quality in education. (Author/GDB)
