The Nursing and Midwifery Training School at Tepa in the Ahafo Ano North District of the Ashanti region has held its 4th matriculation, with a call on all stakeholders to come to the aid of the school.
The school offers two and three years training, leading to a career in Nurse Assistants, Registered General Nursing and Midwifery.
The Principal of the school, Dr. Victoria Amoah, who made the call, complained of a number of challenges, including inadequate infrastructure and lack of discipline among students, and said assistance in this direction would help improve the quality of learning.
Dr. Amoah noted that after almost three years of achieving tertiary status, there was the need for larger classrooms, modern skills laboratory, modern teaching learning materials, more reference books, a bus to transport students for field and practical work, more tutors, and more staff accommodation.
The Principal explained that the efforts of the Health Ministry and the District Assembly to adequately support the school had been impaired by budgetary constraints, hence the need for a shift to greater reliance on parents and stakeholders, in their effort to provide quality training for the students.
According to her, the school currently has a population of 882 students, 14 permanent and eight part-time tutors, 25 non-teaching staff and five service personnel, bringing the student-tutor ratio to 631:1.
Nana Adusei Atwenewaa Ampem II, Tepa Omanhene, appealed to the school to consider enrolling students from the locality to promote education.
