In Trinidad and Tobago the Government’s priorities for Education are as follows:

1) Inclusive Education that places emphasis on the provision of educational opportunities for  the  broadest  range  of  learners,  including  those  with  differing  abilities  who  need special learning contexts;

 2) Equitable Education that  stipulates  the  equal  provision  of  a  diversity  of  educational opportunities  appropriate for learners who have differing learning styles and who may not be able to learn in the traditional classroom governed by teacher-talk; 

 3) Quality  Education that  includes  the  preparation  of  teachers,  the  relevance  of  the curriculum,  the  availability  of  resources  for  the  classroom  and  teachers,  and  the competence  of  the    management  of  the  schools  in  which  teachers  have  to  operate, resulting  in  improved  learner  performance  and  recognized  certification  of  skills, competencies and attitudes; and 

 4) Promotion  of  Lifelong  Learning that  advocates  for  the  availability  of  educational opportunities  for adults,  members  of the  workforce,  second-chance  learners  and  those who decide to return to learning after the traditional school age.
