Adopt collective approach to tackle lawlessness in schools — Bishop Akyeaw

BISHOP Dr Richard Owusu Akyeaw, the Founder and General Overseer of Living Grace Ministries, has condemned the growing acts of indiscipline and lawlessness in second cycle institutions.

He called for a collective approach to reverse the trend, saying that discipline triggered academic excellence in achieving life successes.

Bishop Dr Akyeaw made the call when speaking at a durbar of parents, teachers, and students to climax the 15th anniversary celebration of the Standard School of Royals in Sunyani and praised the school authorities for the level of discipline among the students and pupils.

He noted that instilling a sense of discipline would improve academic performance of students and thereby advance academic growth and development in schools.

Bishop Dr Akyeaw said that:

“Excellence isn’t an event, but a habit formed through consistency and self-discipline,”

saying that any disciplined environment fostered confidence, creativity, and love for nation.

He commended the teachers of the school for the dedication in moulding the students and pupils responsibly and urged the school children to remain focused, obedient, and studious.

Mrs Vivian Adu Bonsu, the Proprietress of the School, expressed appreciation to God, management, teachers, and parents for the school’s academic successes.

She said despite some emerging challenges, the school remained committed to achieving its vision of churning out quality and well-behaved and morally upright graduates. –GNA
