The Director, Federal Capital Territory Secondary Education Board, Mrs Nanre Emeje, has denied imposing any levy on Senior Secondary school students in the nation's capital.
She also said the PTA engaged Shokami Consulting Limited to provide digital teaching and learning for schools in the territory.
Emeje added that the board adopted the project and played an advisory role because some students were not showing their report cards to their parents. She said, “The whole project and programme are under PTA, the parents are those that engaged the consulting firm. I am aware that the PTA took on that project because of digital teaching and learning, I believe that they looked at it and saw that it was a worthwhile proposal for them. It’s entirely a PTA project, I believe they have their own agreement.
“When the PTA officials contacted us, we gave them advice on how best to go about it, we accepted the scheme because sometimes parents don’t receive their children results, the children too play pranks by telling their parents that school don’t give them results, with this initiative the cases of students claiming that schools don’t give results won’t be there.
“Parents too were coming to ask how the issue could be solved, we told them that there is a school information system whereby parents can access their children’s results without the children knowing, they can log in and access it. Sometimes when these children collect their results they go and tear it because of poor performance, and would not like their parents to see. It is a system whereby all the children are on the database.
