Schools’ performance reflects leadership

HEAD teachers, principals, respective governing council members and board of management are a integral part of our schools.
Infrastructure developments in schools show how serious, committed and reliable they are.
Schools that construct and do regular maintenance of classrooms, staff houses and ensure the grass is at its lowest are key attributes of a well-managed schools.
Finance should be spent on new developments and renovations to create favourable teaching and learning conditions for children.
Such hardworking head teachers and the boards should stay on longer for best of the children’s education.
Depletion in school resources is a sign of negligence that schools are poorly managed.
In such situations, the head teachers and board members need to be replaced.
The provincial education board should endorse changes in such schools.
Get hardworking and energetic teachers and head teachers from high performing schools to non-performing schools so that our children are served properly.
Get rid of long-term static teachers.
Sitting on a position without good performance year after year is not good for the school and the children.
With more than 20 years of experience as secondary school principal, I can say that Bumayong Lutheran Secondary School was the institution that my good teachers and the administration brought up.
Through their work, we had good improvements in academic performance.
We had strong academic staff and the board back then.
Today, I am very sad to see that some of our schools in Nawaeb are not properly managed.
I am calling on head and senior teachers in these schools to improve for sake of our children.
