Pupils of Nakong Primary School lie on bare floor to study, write exams
Because there isn’t enough furniture in the school, students at Nakong Primary School in the Kasena Nankana West District of the Upper East Region have to sit or lie on the floor to study.
Students in grades one through six sit on the floor to learn. The school’s six-unit classroom block doesn’t have enough furniture to teach and learn well. This situation is not only making education worse in the area, but it is also hurting the health of children, especially when it rains.
