The |Khomas Education Director, Paulus Nghikembua, says improved NSSCO and NSSCAS performances are the result of a deliberate strategy, including induction at schools, heads of departments, principals, and teachers.

The results, Nghikembua says, are representative of quality education, teaching, and learning.

Nghikembua says they are prepared for the new school year, though he adds that there is still a need for capacity building among teachers to ensure the standard of education is upheld.

This, he says, requires collective effort.

The |Khomas Regional Council held an award ceremony for the teachers in the region.

The awards are meant to recognise, appreciate, and honour all those who have contributed positively to education in the region.

Paulus Nghikembua, the |Khomas Region's director of education, described education as a calling that necessitates one's responsibility, obligation, and accountability.

"We could not do it in 2021, and we could also not do it last year, but this year we are doing it to acknowledge the work that you have done."
