The city has made great efforts to implement and concretise the document into specific programmes and actions to create positive developments, especially in innovation in testing towards students capacity development; innovation in education and training management; building the capacity of teachers and educational instructors; and innovation in educational financial mechanisms and facilities, he noted.
