SHULE NYINGI ZA UMMA ZINAKABILIWA NA IDADI KUBWA YA WANAFUNZI

A lot of public schools in many areas of the country are facing the problem of over population of pupils, for instance, one classroom can occupy more than 60 pupils at once, which is making difficult to many teachers to attend to each pupil effectively. As the result they are end up of been overridden hence poor academic performance.

This is the Head teacher for Peramiho Primary School, Jane Mkuwa, who is a 26th head teacher since the school was established in 1928, during an interview with the reporter on  Wednesday. She said her school faces lot problems including small school capitation and the old school buildings which have not renovated for long time now. The school was built by the missionaries of (Benedictine Father of Peramiho, Roman Catholic) and was nationalized by the government later on.
