Edurevue 's List: Bhutan

After debating for three years the relevance of teaching Bhutan history in Dzongkha for classes VII and VIII, the ministry of education this week decided to revert to teaching the subject in English starting this year.

Much of the current discussions among teachers in Bhutanese middle secondary schools revolves around whether Bhutan history should continue to be taught in Dzongkha or should it revert to being taught in English as in the past.
