The plight of Sankor Day Senior High School

Sankor day Senior High School is one of the 200 community day senior high schools started by the NDC government.

The school is located in the Ahanta West District off the Sankor-Dixcove road.

My visit to the school reveals various issues contrary to what is in the public space.

The school is currently offering two courses; Business and General Arts, with a total population of 40 students and 11 teachers. The school, which is expecting new form one students in the next academic year, is having total of 24 class rooms. Out of these, only 3 are currently in use, with the rest in various stages of completion.

Most of the rooms are without tiles, windows, doors, electricity, fans and other basic necessities to support teaching and learning.

Speaking to ahantanews360, the Headmaster of the school registered his displeasure about the departure of the contractor who claims there is no money for him to continue the development. According to him, various reports have been filed at appropriate quarters, but to no avail.

The school is without ICT and Science laboratories. Some students who spoke to us were satisfied with teaching and learning, but pleaded to the government to get the contractor to back to work to complete the project.
