The government has reaffirmed its commitment to provide education services among children but cautioned parents to equally fulfill their principal duties of raising and caring for their offspring.
Prime Minister Kassim Majaliwa said every child will go to school adding that though children will remain in the custody of their parents, going to school will no longer be an option.
The premier said, the government had nullified school fees and other nuisance contributions from primary through form four secondary education to allow parents concentrate on providing other needed requirements for their child’s education.
Speaking in Lindi, Majaliwa said he was impressed with the pace of the ongoing construction of classrooms across the country.
He admitted that the construction work aims at ensuring every qualified child is admitted for secondary education next month.
According to official government reports, at least 907,802 students will be joining Form one secondary school in January 2022.
Lindi Regional Commissioner, Zainab Tellack said work on the construction of classrooms has progressed fairly well.
