As part of this programme we provide meals to rural schools. We also plan to fill teacher vacancies at those schools," the Minister said.Premajayantha said the Government was also planning to uplift and develop higher education.The Minister said after the re-correction of the 2005 GCE A/L examination Chemistry paper, more students had gained entrance to universities."We are also planning to open another University in the Rajarata to increase the intake," he added.<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/sad.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":(" title="Sad    :(" data-shortname=":(" /></blockquote>
