Govt directs district councils to propose schools for approval by the ministry
The government has issued a directive to district
council authorities to send names of the schools which they think need to be
proposed to become advanced secondary schools in their areas. The deputy
minister for Local Government and Regional Administration George Kakunda said
in Parliament that, the government is ready to provide the necessary infrastructures
so as such schools should operate effectively and efficiently. He said the aim
of the government is to ensure that all wards in the country have at least one
registered advanced secondary schools to accommodate students for the advanced
secondary school education in the country in lined with its program of education
for all. The deputy minister was responding to the question which was raised by
Sumve Constituency legislator Richard Mganga Ndasa (CCM) who wanted to know
when the government will bring advanced secondary school in his constituency.

A
similar question was raised by the special seat Mariam Nassor Kisangi (CCM) who wanted to k now plans by the government in its quest
to increase advanced secondary schools in every ward in the country. Responding
to these questions, the deputy minister had kindly requested the district
authorities to build secondary schools and select the best ones to be
registered in accordance with the government’s education circular. On the issue
of free education to be provided in advanced secondary schools just like from
Primary schools up to ordinary level in form four, the deputy minister noted
that, the government does not have enough money at the moment as it is entirely
focused in creating conducive environment at lower levels. The question was
earlier raised by Mpwapwa legislator Malima Lubeleje (CCM) who wanted to know
when the government will extend its free education prpgramme to the advanced
secondary school levels in the country.
