The government is putting a lot of effort into closing the education gap between the coast and the hinterland.
This initiative will significantly improve the quality of life for students in the region by expanding their educational opportunities.
The contemporary school complex will be fitted with ten buildings which include TVET centres, a combined Home Economics and cafeteria area, teachers’ quarters, an outdoor seating plaza, main teaching block and related lecturing facilities, and modern science laboratories for Physics, Chemistry, and Biology.
