He later visited Adoma Primary School where he also found teachers in class and learning progressing smoothly under headteacher Ms. Patricia Apio. Ongom attributed the positive performance in both schools to “strong coordination and cooperation among school management, teachers, and Parent-Teacher Associations.” “I thank the office of the District Education Officer, Moses Agel, for the excellent work he is doing to improve education standards in Alebtong,” Ongom said. Capacity-building meetings with headteachers are producing visible results.

However, I want to warn teachers who absent themselves during learning hours that such behavior will not be tolerated. Every teacher must be in class teaching learners because that is why government pays them,” he added. Agel thanked district leadership for the support and reaffirmed commitment to quality education.

“Our focus has been to strengthen the capacity of headteachers so that they can effectively supervise teachers and improve learning outcomes. We will continue monitoring schools and supporting headteachers to ensure quality education is delivered to every child in Alebtong District. I also urge teachers to remain committed to their duties and always prioritize the learners.” Jennifer Adongo, Agoro Primary School:

We have strengthened teamwork among teachers, school management, and the PTA, which has helped maintain discipline and regular classroom teaching.
