Enga Provincial Government through the leadership of Governor Sir Peter Ipatas is adamant to improve the academic standard of schools in the Province.
Governor Ipatas has envisioned to see Enga producing the best and the top science and Maths students in the Country.
The Provincial Government is partnering with Universities in the Country to fulfil its dream.
Enga Provincial Government through Action Governor, Sir Peter Ipatas has achieved one of its vision, to invest in Education in the province so that more Engans can be educated.
His next step is to ensure that secondary schools in the province are producing top science and Maths students.
Sir Peter said Engans should be celebrating independence, because they are contributors to the development of the Country, by producing more human resources in both the public and private sectors.
Enga Provincial Secondary School Inspector, Henry Kapao told EMTV News that students in Enga have the potential in Maths and Science, but there is still room for improvement in English and Literature.
