We will Deploy 5000 new Teachers in January

The newly recruited 5000 teachers in Enugu state will be deployed to various primary and secondary schools in the state in January , 2017.

The state’s Chairman of Post-Primary School Management Board (PPSMB), Mr Nestor Ezeme, made this known on Tuesday at Queen’s School Enugu, during the scholarship award for winners of an essay competition by the school’s old girls. He said that the move was part of Gov Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi’s efforts to improve education in the state. The chairman also announced the abolition of special or miracle centres for the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) in the state. “Henceforth, all SS2 students must write their WASSC examination in their respective schools and any SS2 student who leaves the school to write the examination elsewhere will not be accepted by any school in the state. “Let me warn that any school principal found admitting SS3 students will be sanctioned by the government,’’ he warned.
