The reason why IVY builds school

IVY opened temporary school for Internally Displace Children by lending a house on this April.

Taking a usage of 3 rooms as classes and 1 room as for teacher’s room, however, since it is a normal house, it is not appropriate for more than 150 children to learn freely. Also, it is impossible to get official credits required for passing on to the upper grade. Hence, IVY discussed with the Ministry of Education and we concluded that if IVY builds school, they would dispatch certificated teachers. This is how a temporary school upgrades as to a formal school.

Ar present, the construction plan has been proceeding in the cooperation from Ministry of Education and construction company.
