Join us on Monday, February 17, 2025, for the next event in our Ask World Bank Caribbean series, as we discuss the urgent education crisis in the region.
Did you know? In the 2024 CSEC exams, only 4.9% of students passed five or more subjects, including Mathematics and English. A 36% pass rate in Mathematics underscores persistent gaps in foundational learning, impacting student success and regional development. Without strong literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking skills, our youth struggle to thrive in today’s job market.
The good news? Solutions are within reach. From smart classrooms in Guyana to STEM investments in Jamaica and Haiti, innovative reforms are making a difference. But more must be done—strengthening foundational learning, improving data collection, integrating digital education, and fostering partnerships are key to transforming education across the region.
Join us for this webinar, which will explore these challenges and highlight opportunities for action.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
