The headmistress of Chemu Senior High School has expressed concerns regarding the challenges faced by students due to the lack of infrastructure at the school.
According to Vicentia Annin-Agyei, "Coming and commuting from home, some of our students are forced to look for homes nearby and rent, just to be able to come to school. This also poses another challenge."
She continued, "Some of them are even living with their boyfriends and girlfriends. We have that challenge."
She further clarified that many students do not intend to find themselves in these situations but are instead compelled by their circumstances.
"Some are forced into that situation, not that they intended to be in that situation, but the situation has called for that," she added.
The headmistress also highlighted the school's ongoing struggles due to its inadequate infrastructure.
"As a transitional school, when we say transitional, it means that the whole year group is not in school at the same time," she said. "There is always one year group out, and two year groups in. It is transitional because the facilities we have are not enough to cater for all our students," she explained.
She urged that steps be taken to address the infrastructure issues, which would help alleviate the challenges faced by students.
"We would urge that we address these issues first, so that at least we can curb some of these challenges," Mrs Annin-Agyei concluded.
