The furniture were procured by the authorities to ameliorate inadequate furniture challenges confronting the school.

The decision was taken during a PTA meeting held in December 2018.

Some disappointed parents said they've paid GH¢10 PTA dues and GH¢30 Levy for PTA projects during registration of their wards in September 2018.

In October 2018, students of the school have been using plastic chairs for studies in their classrooms.

This is because the school is facing a shortage of desks.

The management of the school seems helpless as the students sometimes put a plank of wood on their laps to write.

Meanwhile, others put their books on their laps to write.

Other students also kneel to write as they use their chairs as tables on which they placed their books.
