The Ikonza A.D.C Primary School administration in Hamisi Sub County Vihiga County has called on local leadership and well wishers to come in aid of the construction of classes and other amenities at the institution.
The school headteacher Benjamin Obaga who has managed the school since its inception in 2016 said the institution has no proper classes for 266 pupils.
The school is sponsored by African Divine Church that has aided the construction of few classes, but the shortage has hindered proper learning at the institution.
Obaga noted that some classes were built by funds from Hamisi Constituency Development fund (CDF) urging local leadership and well wishers to come in and rescue the school.
The school that was recently registered by the Ministry of education it’s an average performance in the National examination, and the head teacher is optimistic the school can perform even better if it gets the required assistance.
He called upon the Teacher’s Service Commission (TSC) to deploy more teachers in the institution to curb the shortage that is being experienced at the moment.
On the part of the Church, it has established an education department that helps in overseeing the running of schools sponsored by the Church across the Country.
Partrick Olome, the director in the department says the church has sponsored 111 primary schools, 6 secondary schools and 8 vocational technical training institutes.
He added that the church has invested in fostering education around the country by making sure schools sponsored by the church are well managed to make them a force to reckon on in the education sector.
Obaga noted that the Church pays school fees to needy students and currently sponsoring 400 students in secondary schools and more than 40 in colleges and other institutions across the country.
