Education secretaries, principals tasked on implementation of UBE

PAST and serving education secretaries in Delta State have been  charged to use their position and experience to ensure the effective  implementation of the Universal Basic Education (UBE) as established by  the law.
The charge was given by a former education secretary in Ethiope West  Local Government Area of Delta State, Dr Henry Ofa, at a meeting of  education secretaries held in Oghara, Ethiope West Local Government Area of Delta State.
Dr Ofa noted that education at the primary and junior  secondary levels is very crucial for the development of the child and  that it is necessary that all stakeholders should be involved if the  programme is to achieve the desired results.
He, therefore, advised the education secretaries to seek and engage  the notable institutions and personalities in their areas for the  effective functioning of schools, as government cannot foot the bill of  education alone.
Ofa also advised the secretaries to ensure that they make full use of the inspectorate division to effectively monitor teaching and learning  in their areas.
As appointees of the government, he said, education secretaries  should ensure that they propagate the good works of Governor Ifeanyi  Okowa, especially in the primary and junior secondary levels of  education.
Meanwhile, principals of public secondary schools in the state have  been charged to be dynamic and visionary in the running of schools under their care.
Dr Ofa gave the advice at the send off organized in honour of the  outgoing principal of Oreki Secondary School Oghareki, Mrs Esther  Bariwei.
He commended the efforts of Mrs Bariwei who reached out to prominent  indigenes of Oghara and corporate bodies to transform the facilities in  the school.
