Proprietress Seeks School, Parents Partnership
The Director of Sartoif Montessori School, Lagos Mrs Toyin Daramolekun, has called for a strategic partnership between the school and parents in training the children to become responsible leaders.
Mrs Daramolekun said this at the Christmas Concert organised by the school at the school’s compound last week.
The director said preparing today’s children for global relevance could only be effectively carried out through a strategy and workable partnership between the government, parents and teachers.
According to her, we want to create a healthy environment in which the best and brightest are produced for the world and to lay a solid foundation for excellence in conscience and in competence which can only be effective with the firm support of parents.
She attributed the growing spate of failure among pupils in Nigeria to the negligence of the parents in monitoring their wards’ school work which has continued to undermine the efforts of the teachers.
“Parents have a divine and moral responsibility in the building of the spiritual, mental, educational and moral development of their children which must be done and not delegated to teachers or nannies in the home,” she said.
In an interview, a mother who won the best parent award, Mrs. Folusho Ogunshola, praised the school for being effective in training its pupils.
She added that she devotes time to monitor her wards.
The River State Commissioner for Education, Dr Peters Nwagor has called on media practitioners in Rivers State to deploy their various communication platforms toward promoting government programmes and policies aimed at achieving sustainable development in the education sector. Dr. Nwagor made the appeal when members of the Etche Ethnic Practicing Journalists (EEPJ) paid him a courtesy visit in Office in Port Harcourt. The Commissioner emphasized the strategic role of the media in shaping public perception, promoting government initiatives, and supporting policies capable of improving the quality of education and human capital development in the state. According to him, constructive media engagement remains essential in creating public awareness on educational reforms, students’ welfare, infrastructural improvements, and other interventions being implemented by the state government.
