The Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly (KMA) has provided 800 pieces of mono and dual desks to six schools in the metropolis.
The beneficiary schools are; Islamic Senior High School, Kumasi Anglican Senior High School, Moshie Zongo M/A school, Fanyenebra M/A school, Duase M/A and Krofrom CPC.

The KMA boss, Samuel Pyne, who presented the furniture to the Metro Director of Education, Mr. David Oppong for distribution to the beneficiary schools urged them to maintain them, hoping that the furniture would help improve teaching and learning towards building a solid human resource base for the country.
According to him, the KMA had previously presented about 2,000 dual and mono desks to other schools in the Assembly’s quest to promote education.
The Education Director, Mr. David Oppong received the sets of furniture from the mayor and assured that the furniture, which is a major challenge to schools, would be maintained to serve its purpose.
On behalf of the Ghana Education Service (GES), beneficiary schools, teachers and students, Mr. Oppong thanked the KMA for the support and the commitment and efforts of the mayor to improve standards of education in the metropolis.
