Education authorities in boarding secondary schools have commended the government, through Kalumbila Town Council, for promptly paying fees for students sponsored under the Solwezi West Constituency Development Fund (CDF) bursaries component.
The appreciation was expressed during a verification exercise at Mwinilunga Boarding Secondary School.
Principal Education Standards Officer Patrick Kaonga thanked the local authority and appealed for infrastructure expansion in secondary schools due to the increasing number of pupils.
Kasempa Boys Boarding Secondary School Headteacher Victor Muntanga also appreciated the timely payment, noting it has helped schools plan effectively.
Meanwhile, Kalumbila Town Council Social Economical Planner Fitzjohn Mukonde encouraged sponsored pupils to focus on their education.
