The all-new Sembel Secondary High School
By *TesfaNews*,
*A NEW* high school that was financed by the Zoba ma’ekel regional
administration has been officially inaugurated on Saturday, April 26th in
Sembel sub-zone.
The school that consists of 48 class rooms, 4 laboratory rooms, 3
computers rooms,
a large meeting hall, modern library and a number of stuff offices costs
the administration around 35 million Nakfa (2.3 million US dollars).
In a speech she delivered during the occasion, Ms. Sitom Seid,
administrator of Sembel sub-zone, said that the construction of the school
has been a continuation of the endeavors by the Government of Eritrea to
ensure equal distribution of schools in the country, and called on parents
and students to make judicious use of the school.
Mr. Belai Habtegabir, a representative from the Education Ministry on his
part said that the construction of the school that have a capacity to
accommodate up to 5000 students in two shifts would have significant
contribution in the rise of female enrollment in schools.
The residents of Sembel sub-zone who participated in the inauguration
explained that their children had to travel long distance to attend high
school and with the construction of the school in their back yard their
problem has been solved.
In line with the decentralization policy of the government and the revised
National Policy on Education, delivering education to children in remote
and rural areas are among the priorities.
The policy states that “the government will work towards equitable
education opportunities toall citizens irrespective of rural-urban,
regional, gender and ethnic difference”.
The all-new Sembel High School is then the product of these outstanding
policy
