Municipal Chief Executive for Adentan, Daniel A. Nii-Noi Adumuah has hinted that the Assembly would start organizing Mathematics, Science and English quiz for Junior High School pupils in the Assembly.
According to the MCE, it would become an annual event in the Municipality as it would be factored in the budget of the Assembly.
Speaking with a reporter from ghanadistricts.com, the MCE pointed out that just as the Member of Parliament for Adentan, Yaw Buaben Asamoa has partnered with a private organization to organize this year’s Maths, Science, English and General knowledge quiz which was won by Victory Presby School, the assembly would also replicate same.
The Assembly would take it up and ensure that it becomes an annual event on regular basis for the pupils in the Municipality to understand what competition is like, to help them learn a little harder.
Participating schools were Victory Presby that came first with 59 points, followed by Vine Christian, 57; Sown Din, 53 points and Mercy Islamic with 50 points.
“We have funds that go into educational programmes and we would assist the educational directorate in our budget”.
Again, “residents of Adentan recognise education, we have more than two hundred schools, thirteen of them are public schools and the remaining are private schools”, he added.
The private schools charge a lightly more than the public schools but we have parents who are prepared to pay more for quality education, “you see the results in the just ended quiz, this is the first time it is being organized”.
