846 final-year students from Nkwanta Senior High School (SHS), Community SHS, and Kyabobo Girls SHS are set to return to school after weeks of closure over conflict in the Nkwanta South Municipality.

This development followed discussions among school officials, traditional leaders, and security personnel, resulting in a comprehensive plan for the safe return to academic work.

Security agencies have assured that measures are in place to protect students and staff following the recent violence, which resulted in the death of a final-year student.

Headmaster Solomon Sarpong Bagmae confirmed increased police presence and safety protocols, including emergency response plans, to ensure maximum student security.

The chiefs, Nana Amanfo Monfankye Adele, Nana Okaja Akyode and Nana Gadisa Okunte Challa, highlighted the importance of education for community stability and called for collaboration among all stakeholders.

Parents were encouraged to remain supportive as students prepared for the upcoming West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), with hopes for a safe and successful final year.
