CCN. Cilegon – A total of 300 teachers from various private schools in Cilegon City attended an educational seminar during a networking forum held at Al Khairiyah Multipurpose Building on Saturday, June 3, 2023.
With the theme “The Role of Private Schools in Creating a Smart, Modern, and Dignified Cilegon City,” this networking forum provided an opportunity for private schools in Cilegon City to establish strong connections.

The Chairman of PB Al Khairiyah also highlighted the important role of private schools in educating the young generation of Indonesia. “Although private schools receive government assistance in the form of grants for infrastructure development and laboratory facilities, they hold the same significance as public schools.

The educational seminar and networking forum among private schools are expected to strengthen collaboration among private schools in Cilegon City, enhance the quality of education, and contribute positively to the development of education in the region.
