Pfutsero, August 4 (MExN): An orientation programme was held for all heads of institutions under Sub-Divisional Education Officer (SDEO), Pfutsero on August 3 at EBRC Hall, Pfutsero. Mese Kapfo, SDEO Pfutsero was the resource person.
According to a press release from SDEO office, Pfutsero, the participants had thorough discussion on various points for improvement in the field of education, particularly school administration and academic activities towards quality education.
In his speech, the resource person stated the heads of institutions need to share their experiences with each other and discuss ways to produce qualitative results because education is a team work. “We should remember that we play vital roles in the lives of the students and the society. The nation’s prosperity solely depends on our endeavor.
For, we are dealing with the children of the future leaders,” he exhorted. “We are the role models for our children in all aspects of life, such as, our moral, behaviors, actions. We must be punctual and disciplined ourselves as administrators.”
He encouraged the participants to give their fullest to bring up the children as responsible persons. “I think a nominal administrator cannot yield good harvest. Indeed, we get a very high salary from the government as compared to other employees, hence, we must question and retrospect ourselves whether we are dedicated to our duties up to the satisfaction of others or not, let us be fair and honest with our works of today for tomorrow we will reap it again,” Kapfo stated.
In order to bring a change in a school, he added, an administrator should be more sincere, regular, disciplined, punctual and cooperative so that fellow staffs will also follow the footprints. The SDEO maintained that morning assemblies are golden platform to build the leadership of children where they can pave their ways and lives in true Christian spirit.
He further noted that an administrator should maintain justice in every kind of dealing. Distribution of subject to the subject teacher should be made according to the choice, expertise or interest of the subject teacher as far as practicable. He also asked to supervise and monitor the performance of subject teacher and classes from time to time, conduct weekly test within the topic covered in a week. Conducting frequent teachers’ meeting was another suggestion along with arranging special classes for higher classes. The administrators were also reminded to maintain healthy relationships and cooperation with all the parents and leaders of the locality.
