South West State Delivers Desks and Chairs to Afgoye Schools: What You Need to Know
South West State’s Education Ministry has delivered desks and chairs to government schools in Afgoye District, easing severe classroom shortages and aiming to improve learning conditions for students and teachers.
The Ministry of Education of South West State has distributed essential educational supplies, including desks and chairs, to government-run schools in Afgoye District, in a move aimed at improving learning conditions and strengthening public education infrastructure.
The handover took place as part of the ministry’s ongoing efforts to address shortages in basic school facilities and support students who have long studied under difficult conditions. Education officials said the supplies are intended to create a safer, more dignified, and more effective learning environment for both students and teachers.
The initiative was led by the South West State Ministry of Education and targeted government schools in Afgoye, one of the region’s key educational hubs. School administrators confirmed that the furniture would be immediately allocated to classrooms facing the most acute shortages.
Many public schools in South West State have struggled with inadequate infrastructure due to years of conflict, limited resources, and growing student enrollment. A lack of basic furniture has often forced students to sit on floors or share limited seating, negatively affecting concentration, attendance, and overall learning outcomes.
Ministry officials noted that improving classroom conditions is a critical step toward boosting education quality, reducing dropout rates, and encouraging parents to enroll their children in public schools.
The distribution in Afgoye is part of a wider education recovery plan being implemented across South West State, focusing on school rehabilitation, teacher support, and access to learning materials. The ministry has pledged to continue similar interventions in other districts as resources become available.
Local educators and community leaders welcomed the initiative, calling it a timely and practical investment in the future of children in Afgoye. They urged sustained support to ensure that gains in access are matched by improvements in teaching quality and school management.
As South West State works to rebuild its education system, officials say such targeted support to public schools remains essential to restoring confidence in government-led education and giving students a fair chance to learn, grow, and succeed.
