President John Mahama is committed to improving Education through District Assembly Common Fund

The District Chief Executive Officer of Afigya Kwabere North, Hon Emmanuel Jackson Aguma, has disclosed president John Mahama’s commitment to improving the standard of education through the Districts Assembly Common Fund.

According to him, there is directive to each Assembly to build KG block with offices and a six-unit classrooms as well as JHS block in communities without educational infrastructure to boost education in Ghana from the district Assembly Common Fund.

Speaking to the media Hon Aguma added , to reduce congestion and stress on the part of students in classrooms provision for 1500 Dual and 1500 mono desks to schools in the district has been made.

This he said Afigya Kwabre North will benefit from it.

The President’s decision aims to reduce teenage pregnancies, absenteeism, and fear in students and teachers in “death trap” school buildings.

He made this known during induction and orientation program at Ahenkro Methodist JHS which also saw the launching of the Schools Brass Band and cultural group.

Meanwhile, the Ahenkro Methodist headmaster, Mr Domfeh, also disclosed that the school lacks infrastructures that will improve quality education.

He also stated that students should be taken out to exhibit their talents.

Teachers should do some programs to showcase the talent of the students, not anytime in the classroom, because some students are not good in the classroom but they have good talent.
