This Wednesday, the working commission that will evaluate the impact of schoolwork was installed at the headquarters of the Ministry of Education, in Caracas.

The information was released by the rector of the Samuel Robinson National Experimental University of Teaching and member of this commission, Belkis Bigott, who stressed that representatives of public and private basic, secondary and university education institutions, social movements, the Bolivarian Student Organization (OBE), the Aristobulo Istúriz Bolivarian Family Movement and the ministry's technical team are participating in this mission.

“The first action was the national meeting with the Minister (last October 1), which led to the commission being established,” he explained.

On September 12, Minister Héctor Rodríguez convened a debate on the impact of schoolwork, since in many cases they generate stress and even violence in the home, in addition to the additional workload for students and parents.

This initiative, according to a press release from the Ministry of Education, will be developed in four directions and “in all spaces and with the greatest possible breadth”. The first direction is to systematize what already exists on this topic, the second is to generate lines of research in universities “to support in the most scientific way possible the decisions and recommendations that are made; as a third line, families and classroom teachers will be consulted; while the fourth direction is to generate recommendations after all this process “with the greatest possible consensus”, to properly design policies in this regard.
