A School In Embu Risks Losing Students Due To Principal’s Bad Behavior

Date:

AIC Ndune Secondary School in Makima, Embu might soon be left without students due to the principal’s drunkenness and immoral behavior.

Parents whose children study at the school have come out guns blazing protesting about the principal’s behavior while threatening to transfer their children to other schools.

According to the concerned parents, the school head has failed to change his ways despite being reprimanded.

They say that no action has been taken against the teacher even after they reported the matter to the Teachers Service Commission(TSC).

“No school deserves to have a teacher of this caliber, in fact to mention the name principal against his name is actually an insult to the title. He doesn’t deserve to have that title let alone being a teacher,”  the School’s BOM Chairperson James Utu said.

The BOM chair urged TSC to take action against the teacher to set an example to other teachers with similar behavior.

“Our request is that the TSC ensures that this teacher doesn’t step in this school. We don’t want to have our students wasted. He is not helping our children and neither is his drunkenness,”  Utu.

Parents complained that the school has failed to function effectively due to the principal’s intoxication.

“Sometimes when he is drunk he can even send our kids home for no reason. He even organizes parent-teacher meetings but fails to show up because of over-engaging in alcohol. This is the reason why many parents don’t show up for these meetings anymore,” a parent said.

Aside from drunkenness, the principal is also accused of misappropriating funds.

“He is actually using the school funds in the wrong manner and we have a mandate as the BOM to ensure funds are used correctly,” another parent stated.

On the other hand, Pastor Boniface Kieti of the AIC Church that is the school’s official sponsor condemned the principal’s behavior saying that he was a bad example to students.

“He is corrupting our children’s morals and we don’t want that. In some instances, when drunk, he also harasses female students and that cannot be tolerated,” Kieti said.
