The Ministry of Education has extended the reopening of Public and Private Nursery, Primary and Secondary Schools for the Second term to Monday January 13, 2020 as part of efforts to make sure that Abia parents and the Abia Child are better served, as well as ensure that the full implementation of the closure of Schools run in residential buildings, Warehouses, Church halls, Village/Town halls and other make-shift places becomes easier.
This was contained in a statement signed by the Commissioner for Education Dr Kanelechi CK Nwangwa who noted that the extension was “to enable parents to have more time to move their children from these CLOSED SCHOOLS to the Approved Private and Public Schools (Schools in their own School Compounds) of their choice.”
The statement added that, “the Ministry is appealing to these Approved Schools to receive the new intakes and allow them to use their old School Uniforms for sometime before changing into the new one. Private Schools are urged to allow parents arrange payment plans, when needed, to make sure that the process does not affect any Child’s education.”
“The Ministry of Education therefore appeals to everyone to help the Government to give the Abia Child the right education in the right environment,” He concluded.
