THE Sawla-Tuna-Kalba District Director of Education, Mr Frank Aflakpui, has warned that his outfit would not hesitate to sanction headmasters who refuse to report to school during the first day of re-opening.
Mr Aflakpui gave the warning at Sawla when he led some officers from the Ghana Education Service (GES) in the district to tour a number of schools during “My First Day at School” programme.
The director and his entourage defied a heavy downpour to visit 25 schools.
Mr Aflakpui cautioned heads of institutions against misapplying the Capitation Grant, stressing that any headmaster who did that would be dealt with in line with the GES regulations.
The director lauded the efforts of hard-working teachers in the district and encouraged them to work harder to improve the academic performance of pupils in the district.
He stressed the need for parents, teachers and education authorities to collaborate to reduce, among other challenges, the high school dropout rate in the district.
Mr Aflakpui further entreated teachers to contribute meaningfully to the implementation of the District Teachers’ Welfare Fund, which would take off early next year.
The director, on behalf of the GES, later distributed a number of bottles of soft drinks and biscuits to class one pupils to welcome them to their respective schools.
