Sagicor embraces early childhood education

Impacting Jamaica

The Sagicor Foundation is continuing to pump millions of dollars into Jamaica’s early childhood education sector. It has just spent in excess of $20 million to upgrade three schools in St Catherine, St James and Westmoreland, massively transforming the learning environment of hundreds of children between three and five years old. “It is a growing family,” said Sagicor executive Michelle-Ann Lettman who notes that three schools are selected for upgrade every academic year; and that the plan is to push this to five. The relationship with the early childhood education sector is taking place under the Adopt-A-School programme, run by financial services giant Sagicor Group Jamaica. In this episode of Impacting Jamaica with host Luke Douglas, Sagicor’s Lettman talks about this worthy initiative in that is transforming education for thousands.
