In an opening remark, Mr. Evans Akingya, the deputy director of the Assembly said, in respect of the Basic Education Certificate Examination, management took decision on office equipment that could help the directorate to register candidates for the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) and hinted that it was upon the management’s decision that the Assembly has donated the above equipment to enhance the work of the Electronic Management Information System Unit of the directorate.
During presentation of the equipment, the MCE for Tano South Assembly, Hon. Collins Offinam Takyi officially informed all present that the district has been elevated to the Municipal status.

In another development, Hon. Takyi said, due to the Free Compulsory Universal Basic Education programme (FCUBE), government has absorbed all fees needed to be paid by parents for their children in the primary and junior high schools  and stressed that, the programme has helped to increase the enrolment figures in the Basic and Junior High schools and urged the directorate to play their routine supervising role to ensure that teachers report to work at all times to teach the students. He said the office equipment provided by the Assembly will go a long way to help the directorate to keep data on all final year students registered to write the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) in the Municipality.
Mr. Tawia, the director in charge of the inspectorate division who received the equipment on behalf of the Tano South Municipal Director of Education thanked the MCE and the Assembly for their kind gesture and promised that the equipment will be used for its intended purposes and also put them into good use.
