THE Director of the Gonzalez Educational Complex in Kumasi, Reverend Stephen Acquah, has asked parents to support school management boards to provide quality education, particularly at the basic level.
Rev Acquah noted that the critical challenge of education in the country was to make basic education more effective.
He made the remarks in Kumasi in connection with the first anniversary celebration of the school on the theme, 'Focusing on Child Training Technology'.
Rev Acquah said teaching is not an easy job but with the co-operation of parents and other stakeholders, teachers would be motivated to offer their best to lay a solid foundation for the children entrusted to their care.
'Without a fortified foundation at the basic level, whatever system you adopt in teaching will not be successful', he stressed.
He said the Gonzalez School needed the assistance of parents to train the children in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and also to put up a permanent school block and provide logistics for the school.
For his part, the Chairman of the school's Parent -Teacher Association (PTA), Mr Mark Asare Donkor, said education was very expensive all over the world but parents should think of its benefits and invest in their children and help them to become responsible people in the future.
Mr Donkor pleaded with the school board to fence the campus to protect the children from going outside.
The Director of Ghana Inland Mission, Rev E.K. Basoah, said parents should go the extra mile to train their children to take the mantle as future leaders.
He advised that parents should not leave their children at home when going to church, but make it a habit to always go with them.
