Anweem-Kissi Basic School in the Central Region needs urgent attention due to its deteriorated nature.
Stakeholders in the community say the School structure is a death trap, as it can collapse at anytime and cause havoc.
They fear the pupils lives are in danger because of the condition of the school and have thus called on the government to attend to their plight.
Anweem-Kissi Basic School is in the Komenda Edina Eguafo Abrem Municipality of the Central Region.
The School has been in bad shape for years but the community members say, appeals to the government to get the school structure fixed have yielded no results.
A teacher’s bungalow which was started in the year 2010, is still not completed.
The children are unable to observe social distancing in this Covid 19 era because of inadequate school desks.
G News Network can authoritatively report that the School structure is in a very dilapidated state.
Teachers and learners say they fear for their lives.
Members of the community recount, that teachers who are posted there don’t return after seeing the structure.
“We have to convince the teachers before they stay for about a year and afterwards, they apply for transfer”, they lamented.
The SMC Chairman for the School, Abubakar Mensah, indicated that “We’ve made several appeals to the government, to no avail. We hope the government would listen to us this time”.
The Chief of Anweem-Kissi, Nana Kobina Mensah appealed to the government to reconstruct the School block. “Also the government should complete the teacher’s bungalow for us. The School serves a number of the surrounding communities, else our children would not have access to quality education”, he maintained.
“Our children are really suffering. Whenever it rains, the children can’t do any serious classes due to the nature of the building. At times snakes chase them out of class. We really need help from the government”, Aunt Ekua Esirifua, a resident appealed.
