By Breaking Belize News Staff (HP): Belize’s education system is going through a major transformation focused on inclusion, digital innovation, early learning and safe spaces for young people, according to UNICEF Belize’s 2025 Annual Report.
UNICEF says it worked closely with the Ministry of Education, Culture, Science and Technology and national partners last year to strengthen education at every level.
One key focus was improving the quality of teaching under Belize’s competency based curriculum. UNICEF and the Ministry partnered with the University of Texas at Tyler on a pilot programme to help the education system coach teachers, measure instructional quality and sustain reforms over the long term.
Belize also received a US$1 million System Capacity Grant from the Global Partnership for Education. That funding helped design the Strengthening Educational System Resilience Programme, which included a nationwide evaluation of the Education Sector Plan, consultations with educators and communities, and Belize’s first Joint Sector Review.
On safety, UNICEF supported a disaster management audit and trained 45 principals and 383 teachers, while more than 3,000 children took part in simulation exercises and safety planning.
UNICEF says the goal is a system where every teacher is supported, every child is included and every young person can thrive.
