In line with current effort to fine-tune the education sector in Rivers State, the State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) is set to delist any of its Supervisors and Principals of schools who are unable to meet required standards in performance.
\nStating this at a one-day training workshop for Supervisory Directors and Chief Supervisors of Education, yesterday, the Executive Chairman of SUBEB, Ven. Fyneface Akah said, this is to ensure that sanity is brought back to the education sector.
\n\u201cIf a Director or Chief Supervisor exhibits ineptitude in anyway, the position of our Board is to delist them, and put them where they belong.
\nWhat this means is that if as a Director, Chief Supervisor, Principal or Head teacher you are not performing, it means you are not in the right place.
\n\u201cSo, as a Board, our position is to put you where you can perform well, and remove you from where you do not have the clout of control and administrative authority, which you are unable to exercise\u201d, he said.
\nAccording to him, the move is to ensure that only functional and efficient people are placed in positions to enhance the required change that the education sector needs.
\nIn the same vein, the SUBEB boss used the opportunity to lay credence to the Rivers State Government\u2019s drive to ban about 2,000 illegal schools in the state.
\nHe, however, used the opportunity to call on\u00a0 proprietors of schools that are not duly registered to use this opportunity to meet the criteria and register their schools.
\nVen. Akah further called on parents and guardians to withdraw their pupils and wards from such schools to public schools which have more qualified staff.
\n\u201cOur appeal is for parents to remove their children\/wards from illegal schools and come to the public schools because it is part of their due to benefit from the federal and state governments Universal Basic Education Schools\u201d, he said.
\nOn his part, the Commissioner in charge of training in SUBEB, Dr. Williams Nzidee explained that the essence of the training was to prepare Supervisory Directors and Chief Supervisors of Education for their various functions.
\nThis, he said, had been a source for concern at various spheres in the administration of schools.
\nIn his paper titled, \u201cThe Role of the Supervisory Directors and Chief Supervisors for Effective Local Government Educational Supervision\u201d, Professor Livinus Ogbondah highlighted what is expected of them.
\nAccording to him, it is expected of Supervisory Directors and Chief Supervisors to among other things ensure that minimum standards are maintained and adhered to during teaching and learning process.
\nThey are also to provide a forum for purposeful and constructive advice that would assist in improving the quality of teaching and learning.<\/p>\n
