The Education Inspector in Omaheke, Eliakim Katunovandu Kavari, has called on stakeholders in education to get involved in the children's education, as this is the only way the region will improve on its performance.
Addressing a media conference at Gobabis, Kavari says 26,000 learners in the region have been enrolled at schools this year, expressing confidence that learning will begin on schedule and without hindrance.
Kavari reminded residents of COVID-19, which has had an impact on education over the past two years.
"Education is a straightforward profession. Teachers must teach, managers must manage, learners must learn, and parents must provide support. That's all, and it is our motto for the year. We will manage, administer, and provide support in accordance with our mandate. The regional office and the principal must monitor teaching and learning, and they must provide leadership. HODs should monitor classroom teaching and learning. Then we'll all be on it, and everything will be possible."
At the regional level, engagements are being set with school principals, teachers, and parents, among other things, to help revive career fair events in schools and strengthen the sector.
"We will individualize results, teacher-based, school-based, regionally-based, and parental involvement must be one of our primary goals in order to improve results. More importantly, the person to do it is the learner we can use, but how our learners are motivated is another aspect. The role of life skills teachers must be revived, as must issues of career fairs, and the issue of learning support states that the child must support well what the teacher is teaching."
The Omaheke Region has 44 schools with 990 teachers.
