Dayokpo, Grand Kru County—The administration of Dayokpo Public School, led by Principal Sylvester Weah, has raised alarmed over the worsening learning conditions in the school.
The administration of the school attributed the poor leaning conditions to lack of adequate facilities and educational resources.
School Principal Sylvester Weah pointed out that the school is currently struggling with insufficient seating capacity and a shortage of textbooks, both of which are essential for effective teaching and learning.
“The situation is deeply challenging,” Weah said. “Many of our students have no proper sitting arrangements, and the lack of textbooks continues to make learning very difficult.”
The Dayokpo School principal explained that the school administration and community members, have initiated a “Hands to Hands” contribution effort aimed at improving educational outcomes and supporting students despite the limited resources.
He disclosed that a significant number of students are being temporarily accommodated at an alternative site, as the construction of a new school facility continues with the support of Senator Albert Tugbe Chie.
“We are grateful for the community’s efforts during this challenging time,” he added. “However, the pressing need for a proper learning environment cannot be overstated. We urgently require more sitting and instructional materials to facilitate our students’ education.”
Principal Weah also made a direct appeal to Senator Chie and other stakeholders to prioritize the completion of the new school building, which he said would greatly ease the burden currently faced by both students and teachers.
“We appreciate the ongoing construction project under the leadership of Senator Chie,” Weah said, “but we are urging for swift completion so our students can finally learn in a safe and conducive environment.”
The appeal comes amid growing calls from the school authorities and parents of Dayokpo Community for increased government attention to the state of public education, especially in rural communities where schools continue to face chronic shortages of basic learning materials and infrastructure.
