YEREVAN (Armenpress) — The schools of Kurdish communities of Armenia are provided with textbooks prepared for 1-12nd grades, head of the Department of the Kurdish Writers of the Writers’ Union of Armenia, poet Alixan Mame said in an interview with “Armenpress”.

Having such scientifically prepared textbooks is a historical event.

“Such textbooks haven’t been published in the history of Kurdish people. 13 textbooks were published. A chance was given in Armenia to publish textbooks with unique syllabus and scientific formulation. This is a really historical event in the Kurdish people’s life”, he said.

He expressed concern there is a lack of Kurdish teaching professionals, but trainings are organized by the author.

He said before the publication of the textbooks, the minorities studied at schools with Yazidi textbooks.

The textbooks were published in “Spica” publishing house by the state’s sponsorship.
