The Headteacher of Community Model Primary School, Akabor Ojoto, in Idemili South Council Area, Mrs Nnenna Okwuchukwu Edoziobi has received a special commendation for her outstanding leadership style.
The commendation was announced to the awardee, Mrs Edoziobi by the Executive Chairman of ASUBEB, Awka, Dr. Vera Nkiru Nwadinobi during the Carol of Nine Lessons held at ASUBEB Headquarters, Awka.
According to Dr. Nwadinobi, Mrs Edoziobi has distinguished herself as a leader among her contemporaries, hence she deserves to be commended.
“At a time when some school Heads are engaging in all manner of pecuniary acts to impose illegal levies on learners thereby sabotaging the free education policy of Mr. Governor, Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo, CFR, she was looking inwards to engage her pupils in practical learning of handcrafts and other skills”, she noted.
“We were impressed with what we saw her pupils doing with their hands in basket and broom making, confectionery such as chin chin and burns; liquid soap and insecticide which the children are already imbibing”.
Dr. Nwadinobi restated the need for all school Heads to promote skill acquisition, creativity, and reading culture in schools to enhance cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains of teaching and learning experiences.
Responding, Mrs Nnenna Edoziobi praised God for finding her worthy, and promised not to relent in doing all in her powers to make the pupils under her care gain the best of formation.
