Ejisu (Ash) Sept. 11, GNA – Madam Amina
Achiaa, Ejisu Municipal Director of Education has urged teachers to commit
themselves to both the academic and moral training of children entrusted in
their care.

She said teachers, particularly, those at
the basic levels of education had a crucial role to play to strengthen moral
training in schools to help produce children with high moral values and
academic achievement.

There was therefore, the need for them to
see these children as their own and impart the needed skills and acceptable
values to enable them grow up to become responsible citizens in the future.

Madam Achiaa, made the call after touring
some schools in the municipality to welcome children who were being admitted
into the formal school system for the first time, to mark the “my first day of
school” programme.

She praised teachers in the municipality for
doing their best to provide quality education and training to children but
urged them to do more to make school and learning more attractive to children.

Madam Achiaa urged them to desist from acts
such as laziness, absenteeism, lateness to school and other attitudes that
brought the image of the teaching profession into dispute.

On the introduction of the new curriculum
for the primary schools, Madam Achiaa, commended the teachers for their
commitment and dedication during the training period and entreated them to
ensure full compliance of guidelines for the successful implementation of the
curriculum.

She presented pencils, exercise and drawing
books, as well as some biscuits to the new pupils.

Some of the schools she visited were Onwe,
Apromase, Edwenase and Ejisu MA primary schools.
