Accommodation issue

​Teachers need accommodation

This directly affects a child’s education when teachers are faced with this issue.

Joseph Kolowa, deputy principal of Lealea Primary School, in the nation’s capital, highlighted this as one immediate need of the school serving children in the surrounding villages.

He says at the moment, there are 14 teachers but only 12 houses. And these available houses are in very poor condition.

“We are very desperate because families are in danger. Some teachers have taken it on board to do maintenance themselves.
