ArmInfo. Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan attended the opening ceremony of the reconstructed Hakob Kojoyan Educational Complex in Yerevan. While preserving the complex's original historical and cultural appearance, three school buildings were reconstructed and one new building was constructed as part of the "300 Schools, 500 Kindergartens" program.
According to the government's press service, the Cabinet of Ministers allocated over 2 billion drams for the construction work. The educational complex is also equipped with laboratories, computer equipment, and modern technology. To effectively organize the educational process, the complex has been equipped with the necessary equipment, including studio easels, art shelving, still-life tables, sculpture stands, construction tables, and more. The facility, which meets all modern educational requirements, is designed to accommodate 600 students.
Welcoming those present, Nikol Pashinyan congratulated the school on its opening and recalled that the Civil Contract party's election program includes a project to build 100 art and sports schools. The Prime Minister emphasized the need to add a new component to school construction programs. "It is crucial for us to develop school construction in the Republic of Armenia, because construction is construction, but it is multilayered, and the construction of schools and kindergartens represents a special area," the head of government said.
In this context, he emphasized the importance of having playgrounds near schools and noted that cooperation with municipal partners would be established in this regard. Speaking about the work done, Nikol Pashinyan noted that the improvement in quality is very significant and important, which is a matter of principle.
The Prime Minister noted that two years ago they began considering the aesthetics of "Real Armenia." "The state's political strategies are sometimes not only not expressed in art or forms, but also very often have no connection with the reality of the state and the law. This is also an issue we need to reflect on. Here, too, we need to understand that we need time, patience, and discussion, not debate, to resolve all these issues," Nikol Pashinyan said.
Expressing gratitude to the teachers who completed the voluntary certification, the Prime Minister emphasized the importance and necessity of improving education. "I've said before that no one knows everything, so everyone must learn something new. We must make this a way of life, a way of life for all citizens of the Republic of Armenia, because it guarantees the development of the state," the head of government noted.
Concluding his speech, the Prime Minister once again expressed gratitude to all the people who work in Armenia, achieve results, pay the taxes established by law, issue and request receipts. "We must understand how all this is created. All this is created through labor, collected taxes, the collection of state revenues, and the distribution of state revenues," Nikol Pashinyan emphasized, thanking all those involved in the school construction program.
