Anambra proscribes 12 private schools
Anambra State government has proscribed 12 private schools for alleged irregularities.
Commissioner for Basic Education Prof. Kate Omenugha said the schools do not have conducive teaching and learning environments.
The proscription followed the three-day warning strike embarked upon by the schools over multiple taxation by the government.
The proscribed schools are Jubilee Secondary School, Ihiala; Jonjay Comprehensive Secondary School, Ihiala; Redemption Model Secondary School Awada, Obosi, Higher Achievers Secondary School Uli and Spencer Secondary School, Uli.
Others are City High Secondary School, Ozubulu; Summit Comprehensive College, Obosi; Dominion Comprehensive Secondary School, Obosi and Keep Looking to Jesus Comprehensive Secondary School, Nnewi; Azia Comprehensive Secondary School, Azia; Star Light Secondary School, Ogbunike and Bilingual Secondary School Abagana.
Prof. Kate, who said the ministry is committed to sanitising the education sector, lamented that some private schools had engaged in examination malpractices, otherwise known as ‘miracle centres’.
She said: “The Ministry of Education has done a lot towards getting private schools work together to achieve more for the state but some miscreants are bent on distorting the system.
“It is unheard of that private schools will embark on a strike without writing to the ministry. We invited the groups to an emergency meeting on March 14, but two of the four groups declined the invitation and instead resorted to strike.
