The Senator representing Cross River Central Senatorial District, Senator Eteng Jonah Williams, has facilitated instructional materials such as Notebooks, School bags, Calculators, Mathematical sets, Writing Items, and others to selected public schools in Cross River Central Senatorial District to ensure an effective approach to teaching delivery.
At the presentation of the items to the schools, Senator Williams, represented by Liason officer, Hon. Ayiba Ojong Ayiba reiterated his desire to elevate the standard of education, saying that the idea of the intervention was to stimulate the students’ interest in learning.
“The purpose of this intervention is to give the students access to necessary materials that will be used to complement learning objectives and to encourage higher levels of student performance”
“We are committed to facilitating projects critical to the improvement of the standard of education and this is evident in the various interventions we have made in the education sector, including foreign scholarships to students to study outside of the country, several school fees assistance, and educational grants.
“The Principals of the benefiting schools are enjoined to make judicious use of these items to realise the purpose for which they were facilitated and most importantly, they should not be mismanaged, they should get to the students.
“We shall remain unrelenting in our efforts to extend the intervention to more schools across the Central Senatorial District. The schools that are yet to be touched will be the principal considerations in the next phase of interventions.”
In their respective remarks, the principals of the benefitting schools appreciated the lawmaker for his unceasing interventions to enhance educational development, promising that the items would be effectively used to facilitate the delivery of quality learning outcomes.
