 Headteacher Demoted Over Persistent Absence in Awka North 


By Obiageli Nwankwo


The headteacher of Unity Primary School in Awba Ofemili, Awka North LGA, Mrs. Bertha Chidebe has been demoted and directed to hand over her duties to the next senior officer, Mrs. Helen Okafor, due to consistent absence from her post.


This action was announced by the Commissioner for Education, Prof. Ngozi Chuma-Udeh, during the distribution of writing materials donated by Senator Oluremi Tinubu and Dr. Nonye Soludo to state-run primary schools in Anambra State.


The commissioner expressed disappointment with the poor condition of the school and, upon further investigation, found that the headteacher had been largely absent from her responsibilities.


During the visit, Prof. Chuma-Udeh observed that the school was in a state of neglect, with overgrown fields and classrooms in disrepair, some even missing roofs.


The commissioner urged community leaders and the town union to help renovate the school to create a safe and conducive environment for learning.


In a related visit, the commissioner also expressed concern over conditions at the Community Primary School in Ugbenu 205, where she noted that some students were leaving school before the official dismissal time of 1:30 p.m.


Furthermore, Prof. Chuma-Udeh announced that the state will conduct a re-evaluation and accreditation exercise for schools. She warned that any school failing to meet standard management practices will face consequences, including the demotion of its management or termination of employment.
