Minister for Education, Dr. Yaw Adutwum has urged pupils of The Morning Star School to have dreams that will scare them to do more in their academics.
The Minister made these known while interacting with pupils of the school during a working visit on Thursday.
Interacting with the students, the Education Minister said “Life is a miracle. Your miracle comes when you get to do what you never thought you will be able to do. So I always encourage people that don’t think of becoming just a Medical Doctor, dream of developing of building medical hospitals across Africa”
“Have a dream that can scare you and when you have that dream, you don’t play around. Your dream is so big that you don’t have time to waste”
He challenged the pupils to use their weekend revise what has already been taught as well as read ahead, adding that such practices will always boot the learning skills of the child.
“Spend your Saturdays and Sundays well. Make time to read. Dream of becoming someone great in the world. Pick-up your books and read. Reading should not be about what has been assigned to you. Read on your own and improve your vocabulary”
Addressing the media after his tour, the Education Minister said “I want to underscore the importance of the private sector-public sector working together. When the private sector does well, they do it for the country so I want to encourage Private Sector workers to know that the Ministry is behind them”
He added that the Education Ministry will continue to support the Private Sector to be able to achieve more.
“It is important that public schools collaborate with private schools. There are some best practices here. We don’t need to travel abroad to get best practices.
She added that impacting knowledge in the lives of children for them to become great personalities has always been a dream thus her running of The Morning Star School.
She assured the Education Minister that she will ensure more great minds are churned out from The Morning Star School.
