He, therefore, encouraged teachers to offer their best by guiding students to desist from such acts.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><strong>Collaboration<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Mr Nartey also urged parents to collaborate with teachers and head teachers to offer total protection and guidance and provide the right teaching environment for their children to become responsible citizens and contribute positively to national development.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">He advised parents to invest in their children\u2019s education, since it was a valuable legacy that they could leave for them. &#8220;The best legacy you can leave for your children is to invest in their education, &#8220;he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\u00a0Aside from the mathematical sets, he presented an undisclosed sum to teachers and head teachers in all the four circuits as a way of motivating them.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\u00a0He further promised to contribute his quota to improve upon education in the constituency. &#8220;I will do anything possible within my means to support public and private schools in the constituency,\u201d he said.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">For his part, the Circuit Supervisor for Latebiokorshie, Mr Martin Apima, said the final year BECE candidates had been counselled on examination malpractices and their implications. He opined that the provision of the mathematical sets by the MP would go a long way to reduce the rate at which students communicated in the examination halls. &#8220;The provision of mathematical sets is a way of preventing examination malpractice as these students would not have to borrow from their mates,&#8221; he said.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><strong>Measures put in place<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Mr Apima said a lot of measures had been put in place to prevent examination malpractices during the BECE and that the invigilators would not assist candidates during the exam.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\u201cI am confident that this year\u2019s BECE will be better because of the efforts we have put in place to ensure that these candidates excel,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">The Headmistress of Kaneshie West Basic School, Madam Emelia Ohemeng, expressed the hope that the students would excel in the BECE because they had been provided with adequate teaching and counselling by dedicated teachers.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">She commended the MP for his contribution and concern to the educational needs of the circuit and gave an assurance that they would also contribute their quota to impart knowledge to the children.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t              <!-- new position --><br \/>\n          <!-- new position end -->\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Member of Parliament (MP) for Ablekuma Central, Mr Ebenezer Nartey, has advised students to take their academic work seriously and avoid examination malpractices. &#13;
