¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, thank you for the question. As I mentioned, there are Piriven Institutes aligned to school subjects. In the coming year, all Pirivenas teaching school subjects will undergo curriculum reform, including IT, computer science and internet connectivity, aligned with global standards. For other Pirivenas, amendments to the 1979 Piriven Education Act are needed to revise syllabi; an advisory committee has been appointed for this.
