Secretariat of Education (Argentina)

The Secretariat of Education (, formerly Ministry of Education) of Argentina is a secretariat and former ministry of the national executive power that oversaw education policies on all educational levels, alongside the governments of the twenty-three provinces of Argentina and the City of Buenos Aires.

The Ministry was founded in 1949, when the state's education portfolio was split from the Ministry of Justice and Public Instruction in the first cabinet of President Juan Domingo Perón; the first minister was Oscar Ivanissevich.

After president Javier Milei dissolved the Ministry of Education turning it into a secretariat, Carlos Torrendell was appointed as secretary. The secretariat is controlled by the Ministry of Human Capital.

The secretariat of Education is headquartered at the Sarmiento Palace, popularly known as "Pizzurno Palace" due to its location on Pasaje Pizzurno, in the Buenos Aires neighbourhood of Recoleta. Provided by Wikipedia
