Welcome to random Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a random Wikipedia page every day.
The random article for Tuesday, 14 July 2020 is Pulau School.
The Pulau School is the only school on the Pitcairn Islands. It is located in the capital of Adamstown and follows a modified version of the New Zealand educational curriculum, with changes made to promote local culture and traditions. The school acts as a primary school and caters to children from 5-14 years of age. Higher education is usually completed at a boarding school in New Zealand. The students are taught by a visiting instructor who typically teaches on the island for term of one year. The teacher is also considered the principal and is responsible not only for teaching, but developing the curriculum and promoting continuing education among the rest of the island's population.
