| | Ministry of Basic Education and Culture |
 | | In 1995, the Ministry of Education and Culture was split into the Ministry of Basic Education and Culture, and the Ministry of Higher Education, Vocational Training, Science and Technology. |
 | | The Ministry of Basic Education and Cultures structure is composed of the office of the permanent secretary, whose objective is to co-ordinate the activities of the ministry and ensure that the ministry provides education to Namibians and enhances cultural rights of individuals in line with Article 20 of the countrys Constitution. |
 | | But this must be seen against the ministrys responsibility for nearly half a million (497 418) school-going children, apart from the adults that the ministry reaches through its adult learning programmes and the arts, culture, museum, archives and library services which the ministry provides to the nation as a whole, and to non-nationals. |
