Mrs Juliana Kuatsinu, Principal Physician Assistant of the Trades Union Congress Clinic in Accra has noted that through discipline Ghana could have a cultured and responsible youth to run the country in future.<\/p>\n

\u201cParents too can contribute by spending quality time with the child, and taking a deeper interest in what is happening at school and by making efforts to meet the teachers\u2026to make their children schooling more productive and satisfying,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Mrs Kuatsinu made the observation at the graduation and speech and prize-giving day of California Star School Complex at Omajor in the Ga West Municipality in the Greater Accra Region at the weekend on the theme: \u201cDiscipline: Hallmark of Producing Future Leaders of Distinction.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said the positive approach to discipline was to instil a sense of responsibility in students by using youth\/adult partnerships to develop and share clear rules, provide daily opportunities for success.<\/p>\n

She noted that parents do not notice that by giving in to their children\u2019s demands, they are making them uncontrollable and a menace to the society.<\/p>\n

Mr Kuatsinu said parents do that as a result of alienating children and would want to make them happy realising that they were losing their family support system for their old age.<\/p>\n

\u201cParents begin to give in to everything that their growing teenagers demand, just to keep them happy and in his or her good books\u2026,\u201d she stressed.<\/p>\n

The Principal Physician Assistant said to increase positive behaviour in schools there should be an effective principals who would be liked and respected, rather than feared, communicate caring for students as well as willingness to impose punishment if necessary.<\/p>\n

She said discipline was something one must cultivate from home and school and urged the pupils to show respect by learning to say; \u201cthank you\u201d and \u201cplease\u201d to adults and be ready to assist their parents at home.<\/p>\n

\u201cCo-operate with school authorities to achieve goals.\u00a0 Be punctual at school and consistent with home work.\u00a0 Dress in a decent way, \u2018no Otto Pfister\u2019 or \u2018I am aware\u2019 dressing.\u00a0 For you girls wear simple and nice hairdo to school.\u00a0 No stealing of pens, pencils and erasers, ask and it should be given to you.\u00a0 Don\u2019t join bad company. You will only get bad advice.\u00a0 Do not play truant,\u201d Mrs Kuatsinu said.<\/p>\n

Mr Edward K. Manu, Proprietor of the school said the academic facility started with 18 pupils but now has a population of 500 and had chalked out 100 per cent for four consecutive years in the Basic Education Certificate Examination.<\/p>\n

He called on the government to extend the Capitation Grant to private schools operating in the deprived communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause of our peculiar location we offer fee-free education to school going children from the cr\u00e8che, nursery, kindergarten one and two, when the school introduced this support system about a year ago and more than 60 pupils have enrolled in both the cr\u00e8che and the nursery,\u201d Mr Manu said.<\/p>\n
