PARENTS and students of Aligegeo Provincial Secondary School have called on the Malaita Province Education Authority to prioritise the appointment of a new school principal.
This comes after the delay by Malata provincial Education Authority in posting staff teachers to many schools in the province even though the school’s academic year for 2016 had already started.
The parents feared the late starting of classes will certainly affect the educational performance of students since they will be rushed into trying to catch up with study schedules in the education syllabus because of late starting of classes.
Acting school Principal of Alegegeo Provincial Secondary school, Paul Daumasia said Malaita Provincial Education Authority expects to announce the substantive school principle by next week.
Chief Education officer, Andy Siarani said applicants for the position of school Principal for Alegegeo School are expected to be interview this week.
