St. John Bosco’s College appeals for higher admission quota and facility upgrades
St. John Bosco University of Education, located in Nabrongo in the Upper East region, addressed the government to increase its approval quota to accommodate more students. University officials say the current quota is not sufficient, preventing many eligible applicants from getting approved. The 13th Congregation Ceremony brings current director Dr. Rudolph Nyaaba students to increase the number of universities to help generate internally generated funds (IGFs) for development. “We need to raise the university’s enrollment rate to meet the large number of applicants we receive each year. With a large student population, the university can produce enough IGF to support his development needs. “We’ll do that,” Dr. said. Nyaaba.
Dr. Nyaaba also appealed to Ghana’s Board of Higher Education (GTEC) to recruit additional staff, finding that lack of education and non-teaching staff would undermine the university’s operations. The Acting Principal stressed the importance of refurbishing and retooling the college’s laboratories and workshops to enhance the training of science and mathematics teachers. “University laboratories, workshops and equipment are outdated and not working. These facilities need to be urgently renovated to meet the standards of TVET training schools,” he added. 318 trained teachers graduated at the 13th congregation ceremony. The breakdown of the classification was as follows: 18 students who won 18 students, 153 Upper Division Students who received the second class of Grade 28 students from Grade, 3rd Grade 444.
