The Director and Founder, Awesome Kids Academy, Dr. Ngozi Odocha yesterday, said there is more to be done to improve educational services at public schools noting that the rate at which the standard of education is decaying is quite alarming.
Speaking at the graduation ceremony of its first set of Primary and Nursery pupils, Odocha said public schools could no longer compete with its private counterpart again especially in terms of quality teachers, improved technology and method of learning which is more reason why parents prefer to patronize private schools.
The School Director however said, while private schools cannot educate Nigerians alone, there is need for government to rise up to the occasion of saving the educational system from collapse.
She said, “The private school, we are trying very hard but the government school, there is overcrowding, and they are not meeting needs but private school is trying their best to meet those needs.”Also speaking at the ceremony, the chairman of the occasion Dr Joseph Nnorom advised Nigerians to shun all vices, which has brought so much hate to the society and embrace peace.
“We should not turn at each other, we should dialogue with each other, everybody in Nigeria should be WAZOBIA and every religion should be peaceful”, he added.
The graduation ceremony, which was lighted with a dance performance by both students and Teachers, Taekwondo display and talk shows also had students in four categories rewarded with prizes for excellent performance.
