Parents of Rwentuha Primary School in Rwentuha Town Council, Bushenyi District have locked the head teacher of the school out of his office on allegations of misappropriation of funds.
The parents are said to have locked the head teacher’s office with three padlocks and chased him away. The PTA chairperson says that of the 630 pupils enrolled in the school, no accountability has been produced by the head teacher for them to see how funds are managed since 2019.
Rwentuha Primary School which is 5 meters off Mbarara – Bushenyi highway, was preparing like any other primary school for their primary leaving examinations.
The head teacher was expected to address the candidates when the drama kicked off at the school.
“Last year we had 700 pupils because of poor leadership at the school. The enrollment has since reduced and now we have 630 pupils and every child pays shs40,000. We have never seen the expenditures of the school,” Mr. Sam Sabiti -Chairperson PTA.
“The head teacher has rejected our repeated requests to convene a PTA meeting to account for the money pupils’ pay to the school,” Mr. Sabiti added.
