The Proprietress of Standard Bearers School Lagos, Mrs. Modupe Adesanya-Oni has stressed the need for private school proprietors to help in the revitalisation of the public schools system in the country.
Adesanya-Oni, who was speaking on the sidelines of the 2021 Children’s Day celebrations, noted that the current reality is that several well-heeled private schools are doing much better than other less endowed private schools, as well as the bulk of public schools in the country.
She said the situation is not conducive for rounded educational development across the country.
The proprietress, who has been in the teaching profession for four decades, stated that in line with the need to walk the talk, she and several other like-minded professionals in the sector, had already begun to carry out activities to help bridge the gap and also advance the overall vision of quality education for all.
