As part of making sure that schools in Edo are safer and in good condition and operation for the children, the school base child protection committee, SBCPC has been inaugurated in the state.
This inauguration of the committee became successful with the help of SOS village Nigeria.
According to the speakers, the reason for setting up such a committee was because of the growing concerns of school based offenses.
“Strengthening the school base committee operations has led to designating physical personnel who will be fully responsible to take up issues and further escalating it until it gets to appropriate authorities.
“We are now ready to strengthen the school base committee support, not just building, we are also going to be having a designated person that will be fully responsible when issue in that nature arises.
