The Cyril Potter College of Education (CPCE) is a higher education institution in Georgetown, Guyana.

The school's main campus is in Turkeyen, with an additional training center in Anna Regina.[1]

History

The college was established in September 1928. It was then known as the Teachers' Training Centre. Before 1928, local teachers traveled abroad for education, often in other Caribbean colleges such as Mico University College in Antigua, Shortwood Teachers College in Jamaica and Rawle College in Barbados. In 1942, the institution was renamed Government Training College for teachers (GTC).

In 1963, in addition to the full-time programme (this was referred to as Pre-Service), a part-time programme (In-Service) was launched. The Pre-Service programme catered to students between the ages of 17 and 24, while the In-Service mode catered to those above the age of 24 together with relevant teaching experience. Pre Service Secondary began in January 1969. It was referred to as the Multilateral Teachers' Training Programme. It was later called the College for Secondary Teachers and renamed the Lillian Dewar College of Education in honour of a woman who had given distinctive service to secondary education in Guyana.

In 1974 the College moved to newly completed building at Turkeyen. In 1976, it was renamed the Cyril Potter College of Education in honour of Robert Cyril Gladstone Potter, the first Guyanese principal of the institution.

Formal In-Service Nursery Training (NNTP) started in 1980. By 1983, all teacher-training was done at the Turkeyen campus. In September 1985, Pre-Service and In-Service Training activities were amalgamated under one administrative body.

In 2011, the Ministry of Education established the need for technical and vocational teachers.[2]

The school received a donation from the government of China in order to improve their science facilities.[3]

As a response to COVID19 measures, in 2020 the Ministry of Education launched an online teacher training programme for CPCE and University of Guyana through a partnership with the Organization of American States (OAS) and the ProFuturo Foundation.[4]

Art in the Protestant Reformation and Counter-Reformation

Protestant Reformation: 16th century, Europe Hans Holbein the Younger's Noli me tangere a relatively rare Protestant oil painting of Christ from the Reformation period.

The Protestant Reformation during the 16th century in Europe almost entirely rejected the existing tradition of Catholic art, and very often destroyed as much of it as it could reach. A new artistic tradition ...
