Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>Hopes to have a new primary school in Radisele village have been defeated as enrolment at the existing school does not warrant construction of another one.<\/b><\/p>\n

That came to light in Parliament from a response to a question by Assistant Minister of Local Government and Rural Development, Mr Sethabelo Modukanele on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are no plans to construct a new primary school in Radisele. Radisele Primary School has not yet reached full operational capacity relative to the school enrolment.<\/p>\n

The student-teacher ratio is currently 1:25 which is within the ratio as per the Revised National Policy of Education of 1994,\u201d Mr Modukanele explained.<\/p>\n

He said the school currently had at 837 pupils and the numbers were below the stipulated threshold of 880 pupils stipulated in the 1994 Revised National Policy of Education.<\/p>\n

Mr Modukanele also said the school had 22 classrooms and 37 toilet cubicles and had met the maximum infrastructure requirements of the revised education policy.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, the ministry will consider the construction of a new school with other priorities through the normal planning processes,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Member of Parliament for Serowe South, Mr Leepetswe Lesedi had wanted to know when a new primary school would be constructed in Radisele, owing to the population increase and expansion in the school\u2019s catchment areas of Madiaela and Mokoro villages.<\/p>\n
