The school built by a native philanthropist, Mr George Osei who resides in Holland include ancillary facilities like head teacher’s office, library, ICT centre and store.

The structure is expected to create the needed conducive atmosphere for teaching and learning in order to help improve standard of education in the community and the district as a whole.

Meanwhile, Nana Kwaku Asiamah, Chief of the area commending the good work of Mr George Osei called on others to emulate his gesture in supporting the community to develop faster.

He also made a special appeal to the Member of Parliament for the area, John Osei Frimpong to assist in completing a 12-unit classroom block built by an NGO in Holland costing about 45000 Euro so that the new block can be used as a Senior High School for the community and its environs. He assured that land would not be a problem when it comes to establishing a senior high school in the community.

Nana Asiamah encouraged pupils to also concentrate on their books to make the investments worthwhile, and for their own bright future.

A request is also made to the Minister of Education to help equip the classrooms with furniture, and their computer laboratory and the ICT centre to make the community an ICT learning center.

The chief also called for the teachers’ quarters to be formally transferred to the Assembly for management, and appropriate rent charged and proper allocation done.
