IT IS SAD TO SEE HOW SOME SCHOOL HEAD TEACHERS MANIPULATE SCHOOL BOARDS

I have had opportunity to learn from some senior citizen of Uganda who happens to be on more that one school board. He told me that recently, the Head teacher came to the meeting with a resolution already made of adding some fee to what parents are supposed to pay. Actually, these board members were just to see this implemented! The authority Head teachers have when it comes to choosing and the operation of school boards needs to be re-visited. It is absurd to learn that Head teachers are at liberty to choose who to recruit on school boards. I for one cannot serve on a school board where the Head teacher comes with already determined positions for endorsement as this defeats the logic of the whole board where the Head teacher is secretary.
