MP initiates extra classes for students

Kwahinikrom (C/R), Feb. 25, GNA - Education is the gate way to achieving=

success in any field of human endeavour, Dr. Joseph S. Annan, the Deputy Minister of Education, has said. He was launching extra class sessions for about 260 junior high students= in the Komenda-Edina-Eguafo-Abrem District at Kwahinikrom and Eguafo in preparation for their Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) in April.

Dr. Annan, the Member of Parliament for KEEA, is sponsoring the programme. Dr. Annan said emerging socio-economic trends had shown that without quality, sound and accessible education they would not be able to realize=

their full potentialities of whatever career they want to pursue in futur= e. He appealed to the students to take advantage of the extra classes to improve themselves academically. The programme is designed to improve the BECE results in the district. Dr Annan commended the teachers for conducting the extra classes free of=

charge as their contribution to the improvement of education in the district. About 1,000 students will benefit from the programme which will also be held at Komenda, Sahman, Anwiwomu and Elmina. He later distributed exercise books to the students.
