Educationist Tasks Parents On Radio Lessons Programme
An Educationist, Mrs Jecinta Nweke, at the weekend urged parents to ensure their children and wards participate in the ongoing educational radio programme to help them during the lockdown.
Nweke, a teacher at Enugu Government Model High School, Amechi, gave the advice in an interview with newsmen in Enugu.
She said the programme would help the students to perform better, especially those preparing for the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE).
According to her, the radio programme is being organised by Enugu State Post Primary School Management Board (PPSMB), in collaboration with Radio Nigeria Enugu.
“I am appealing to parents and guardians to allow their children and wards to be part of the radio school programme as it will help them perform better in their studies.
“There is need for parents and guardians to be sensitised on the importance of allowing their children and wards to be part of the programme,” she said.
Nweke said that the educational radio programme was put together to ensure that students were usefully engaged during this lockdown, as Coronavirus outbreak globally necessitated the closure of schools to contain its nationwide spread.
The educationist thanked the government for ensuring that each subject was taught by qualified teachers from different government-owned schools in the state.
