Preschool, primary and secondary school students in Ioba province returned to school on Tuesday, October 1, 2024 for the 2024-2025 school year, AIB noted.
The animation in the schools has resumed with the start of the school year in Ioba. Throughout the provincial territory, teachers welcomed the students. Some new students are accompanied by their parents and the old ones showed up alone. Well dressed and equipped with their school bags, they answered the call of this first day of class.
At the Dano Youth High School, teachers called the roll of students from 6th to 3rd grade. Meanwhile, applicants for places were lined up in front of the principal’s office.
In this row, there were also parents who came to pay their school fees.
At the Dreyer communal preschool and education center (CEEP) in Dano, classes have indeed started. Bonaventure Poda, who accompanied his child from the senior section “C” class, is satisfied with the presence of the teaching staff and the welcome given to the students.
Accordin
g to the director of the Dreyer communal CEEP of Dano, Yacouba Ouédraogo, everything is going well at the start of the school year. The students are received by the educators to build their confidence, he continued.
He added that he needed teaching staff because their number was just equal to the number of classes.
In primary schools, the installation of students in the classrooms after roll call is effective. At the Dakolé A school, the teachers of the 1st year preparatory course (CP1), Mikpière Dabiré and Marie Florence Méda, affirm that classes will start tomorrow Wednesday. Not all those registered came today, they specified. They reported a lack of chairs in the classrooms. To date, they have a student body of 56 but expect to reach 80 as in previous years.
On the occasion of this return to school, the provincial director of preschool, primary and non-formal education (DPEPPNF) of Ioba, Adama Néya, and the head of the basic education district (CCEB) of Dano, Tibouo-ion Romaric Somé, carried out a supe
rvision outing in schools such as Mèbar A and B, Dakolé A and B and the Dreyer school complexes. The CCEB of Dano wished a good return to school to the teachers of these schools.
He urged them to work as a team to meet the challenges during this year 2024-2025. Mr. Somé congratulated the schools that achieved good results in the CEP of the last session. He invited them to redouble their efforts for this year 2024-2025.
For him, the difficulties are already known and they will be resolved gradually. As for the DPEPPNF of Ioba, he praised the effective presence of the staff in class. “We are here to encourage you and congratulate you for the results achieved last year. It is thanks to the efforts of each and every one. I would like you to remain in the same dynamic,” he said.
Without collaboration and solidarity, it is difficult to be successful, Mr. Néya said.
‘Do not be just colleagues but form a team where everyone must play their part in order to achieve better results,’ he advised.
The directors of th
e schools visited reassured of the implementation of all the instructions related to the effective start of classes.
