Since its founding 71 years ago, the Pionier Boys' School in Windhoek has evolved from a small special-needs institution into a centre for both academic and vocational training for boys with learning difficulties in Namibia.

The Executive Director in the Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture has called on directors to be transparent decision makers.

Sanet Steenkamp said transparency is crucial when it comes to procurement, appointments and many other aspects of managing the education sector.
