His Excellency, Comrade Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan introduce education marshals to enforce Universal Basic Education policy.
THE month of September has gone midway and, going by the nation’s academic calendar, it is time for the commencement of a fresh academic year. As the primary and secondary schools open their gates this week, we welcome the pupils and students back from the long vacation period into another season of worthwhile academic endeavour. We congratulate all the school children in the state and beyond on this fresh opportunity that presents itself for self-preparation and improvement. Towards improving the quality of education delivery, the Delta State Government has undertaken a far-reaching renovation of public schools. Currently it is unfolding the operations of the Education Marshals (EduMarshalls)whose duty it is to make sure that all children of school age are compulsorily removed from the streets to have access to universal basic education. Education is a joint social responsibility that requires the concerted inputs of stakeholders such as the teachers, parents, government and private interest proprietors. It has become increasingly evident that, for the slide in the quality of education in our schools to be checked and practically addressed, teachers need to be trained and retrained. There is also an increasing need for a recertification programme for our teachers who are traditionally at the epicentre of the implementation of every curriculum. Our teachers deserve to be better motivated. This can only be possible with improved funding for the sector. Education needs to be prioritized if our quest for sustainable development will not remain a façade. The Inspectorate Division of the Education Ministry, (Basic and Secondary) should check the activities of private school proprietors who employ ill-qualified teachers on low remuneration as a strategy for profit maximization. Parents must come to terms with their enormous responsibility in the education programme of their children and wards. In addition to meeting their material and psychological needs, parents should create enough time in seeing to it that enough supervision is given to school children. This is one way the teaching and learning activities of the teachers can be complemented. Efforts must also be made towards ensuring that the school environment is secured at all times. Education remains the best legacy any society can bequeath to the on-coming generation. It may, in some cases, appear to be capital-intensive but experience has shown that ignorance, as an alternative, is even the more expensive for the society, in the longrun. - See more at: http:// thepointernewsonline.com/ ?p=25750#sthash.UbngbNAy.dpuf
