SUTESCO: Double Track Students Struggling Over Inadequate Desks
SUTESCO: Double Track Students Struggling Over Inadequate Desks
Suhum Senior High Technical School (SUTESCO) has been hit with furniture shortage, with most first-year students admitted under the newly introduced double track system, struggling to get desks to sit on to learn.
Starr News’ visit to the school saw some of the students standing while others lean against the classroom walls over lack of desks.
The situation is affecting teaching and learning.
School Authorities have since converted dining tables and chairs into desks for the students to ameliorate their plight as the school awaits the Ghana Education Service (GES) to come to its aid.
According to sources in the school, whenever desks get damage, instead of them being rehabilitated, they are rather used as firewood, leading to the crisis.
The headmaster Dr Kwabena Kwakye Yeboah was unavailable for an interview during the visit. The Assistant headmaster in charge of academics also declined to speak on the matter.
