The items include over 1,000 mattresses, metal trunks, buckets and mathematical sets, as well as more than 12,000 exercise books, in a move aimed at easing the financial burden on parents and supporting learners as they begin their secondary education.
In the Bibiani Anhwiaso Bekwai Municipality, a Member of Parliament has provided over 430 BECE graduates with educational packages to aid their transition to Senior High School. These graduates, from both public and private schools, scored between 6 and 12 aggregate points in their final examinations. The gesture, delivered at a ceremony in Bibiani, aimed to alleviate the financial strain on parents as their children embark on this new academic journey.
Bright Asamoah Brefo, the MP in question, highlighted that many parents find it challenging to cover the expenses associated with Senior High School education. To tackle this issue, the MP's initiative provided recipients with essential items such as chop boxes, trunks, mattresses, school bags, and exercise books. The support was well-received by the parents and guardians present, who acknowledged its timely nature as their students prepare to enter Senior High School.
They promised to utilize the items properly and remain committed to their studies. According to the MP, this initiative is part of broader efforts to foster academic excellence among young people in the municipality.
