The Member of Parliament for Nkawkaw, Eric Kwakye Darfour has added his voice to the need for additional senior high school to be established at Nkawkaw to cater for the growing population.
Nkawkaw SHS is currently the only government assisted SHS in the whole constituency. The rest are private schools and since the only government assisted cannot admit too many students those who cannot afford the fee for the private ones are left with no option but stay at home. As a municipality, there should be more that two of such public SHS because a municipality has population as a factor to contain with, he stated.
Mr. Darfour however noted that all is not yet lost; with government declaration to build 200 new community senior high schools, he is hopeful their plea will be listened to and at least the constituency will be allocated one. He has therefore stated lobbying for attention.
In related development, the MP indicated that most of junior high schools have to be rehabilitated because their long existence which rendered the structures weak and dilapidated.
Meanwhile, a 3-unit classroom block with office and store started by the Nkawkaw Nsuta Management Committee but stalled is to be completed by the Member of Parliament to make it available to the school for use.
