The facilities include a two-unit classroom block for the Bepoayase D/A kindergarten School and another two-unit classroom block for the Yabraso D/A Kindergarten School.

The facilities, which are girl-friendly, have ancillaries such as toilet and urinal rooms, mechanised boreholes, playgrounds with kits and stores as well as furniture to provide a conducive environment for teaching and learning.

According to the authorities of the schools, before the construction of the facilities, the pupils were studying in  poor conditions which negatively affected studies and enrolment.   

At separate inauguration ceremonies, the Country Director of ActionAid Ghana, John Nkaw, appealed to the government to commit the needed resources and prioritise the provision of kindergarten and primary infrastructure.

He said the construction of the school blocks was the effort of ActionAid to promote quality public basic education and create a brighter future for the children in those communities.

Mr Nkaw said the construction of the facilities demonstrated ActionAid Ghana's unwavering commitment to empowering the most marginalised and vulnerable members of their society.

Mr Nkaw said his outfit was aware of challenges that persisted in ensuring universal access to quality education in the country.

He said limited infrastructure, inadequate resources and lack of trained teachers continued to hinder the educational journey of many children.

Mr Nkaw said quality education would help equip children with the knowledge, skills and confidence they needed to navigate the complexities of the modern world.

He said the work of ActionAid encompassed teacher training programmes, community engagement initiatives, and advocacy for inclusive education and appealed to the management of schools to prioritise maintenance of the buildings.

The Bono Regional Minister, Justina Owusu-Banahene, appealed to teachers, particularly at the kindergarten level, to ensure proper training of the pupils to enable them to become useful in society.

She called for collaboration among parents and teachers to ensure proper upbringing of children who would properly fit and contribute to the development of the country.

For his part, the Tain Member of Parliament (MP), Adama Sulemana, commended ActionAid Ghana for the provision of the school blocks in the area.
He said there was a huge infrastructure deficit in the area, particularly education, and appealed to the government to invest in the developmental projects in the area.
