Leaders, head teachers meet
Kazo district leadership convened a significant workshop today at St. John’s C.O.U, bringing together headteachers from government primary schools to discuss educational progress and challenges in the area. The annual workshop, a customary event held at the start of Term One serves as a platform for headteachers to collaborate with district leaders on critical educational matters.
In an interview with Kazo FM, John Bosco Tumwesigye, the Inspector of Schools for Kazo District emphasized the importance of this meeting noting that it allows for open dialogue about initiatives and improvements within the education sector.
A highlight of the workshop was the election of a new committee for the Kazo Headteachers Association. Tumushabe Paddy was elected as the new chairman, who vowed to work closely with the Kazo District Education Department to enhance educational outcomes and support for schools in the district.
LCV Chairman Rev. Samuel Mugisha Katugunda urged headteachers to be understanding regarding school fees. He discouraged the practice of sending children home for non-payment of fees, emphasizing the importance of inclusivity in education and the need to keep children in school regardless of financial challenges.
As the workshop concluded, the district leaders and headteachers reaffirmed their commitment to fostering an educational environment that supports all students in Kazo highlighting the community’s collaborative efforts to address ongoing challenges within the educational system.
