The Ministry of Education in Western Bahr El-Ghazal State says they have started implementing a project using money donated by UK aid to improve the learning environment in schools.

The state Ministry of Education has so far received more than 760, 000 SSP from UK aid.

133 schools in Wau have receive a first and second grant.

To receive the money, schools must open a bank account and account for the money they spend.

They must provide a report detailing how the money has been spent to improve the school environment or they will not receive further grants.

She said her school has received 22,000 SSP.

“We have started implanting the project using this money,” said Veronica Taya Sabino, the head teacher of Kosti Girls Primary School. “So, when we receive the second grant, we will do a lot of work. Hopefully we will fix the roof. “

Madam Taya said the challenges facing the school are many.

She appealed to the government to increase the number of teachers in order to meet the demand of the school.
