9. STAKEHOLDERS:-
Parent-Teacher Association (P.T.A.): This had been very vibrant and had been the major stakeholder in the provision of infrastructure for the school, except for the past two years when its effort had been stalled due to lack of commitment on the part of the school’s management. However, the “we can do” spirit is being re- vamped by the new Headmaster who at the first meeting of the stakeholders has assured them of his commitment to ensure their projects are executed as planed.
Municipal Assembly:- There had not been any evidence of its earlier commitment, but now the assembly in collaboration with the Traditional authorities, has secured the new site for the school’s development. The assembly is also working to support the school’s development in the form of trying to provide infrastructure, learning equipment (computers) as well as supporting brilliant but needy students by way of scholarship / bursaries, etc., when its share of the common fund is released to it.
Other philanthropists, Non-governmental Organizations (N.G.O’s), etc are promising to support the development of the school in one way or other. E.g. World Vision International is providing a staff toilet (male and female). The same organization is also providing bore-hole potable water for the school.
