Children of Oforikrom Primary School Cry for Classroom Blocks After GES Director Visit. 

The Director General of Ghana education Service Professor Kwasi Opoku Amakwa has visited Junior High Schools in the Birim South District of the Eastern region as part of his activities for ensuring pupils preparedness towards the 2022 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).


He presented past questions and text books to the Junior High Schools he visited and motivated the final year students to learn extra hard in preparation towards the BECE so as to score better grades in order to be enrolled into their preferred choice of Senior High School.


The pupils of Oforikrom District Assembly Basic Primary 4, 5 and 6 Classes in the Birim South district on seeing the Director General lamented bitterly about the frustration they and their teachers go through during rainfall on school hours due to the terrible nature of their school wooden structure.

They revealed this to Alrich24newsgh.com News Reporter that, they either close from school or join their seniors in the JHS block whenever it's about to rain therefore calling on government to complete their school building project which has been halted for more than seven years in order to enhance quality education in the Oforikrom community.


A female teacher at the school Madam Joana Gani also added that the children are really going through a stressful life whenever it is raining, the JHS classes even close and halt classes because of the presence of primary 4, 5 and 6 pupils, therefore they are pleading on government to complete the abandoned school building project to rescue the children.

The District Chief Executive for Birim South District; Honourable Asare Danso responding to why the children are studying in a horrible wooden structure while there is an abandoned school building project to rescue the children explained that they are really working hard to get a new contractor to complete the project which is going to be funded by getfund, hence he will plead with the people to exercise little patience.
