Is the national science and maths quiz platform commonly known as NSMQ a way for schools to show off or it is a measure to determine a school is good or not?
Richlove Oduro a student from the Nsein Senior High School in the Western Region, stirred that debate on social media.
According to her, this platform cannot be used or should not be used as a benchmark to determine good schools.
“The NSMQ is a show, my school is not meant for show” she explained.
An old student and video content creator Goshers, visited the school and spoke to Richlove Oduro, as part of preparations for the renaming and this conversation about the NSMQ being a platform for show off or not came up.
Richlove Oduro’s argues that, the science and maths quiz being a platform for schools to show off has generated a debate online.
Located at Nsein-Axim in the Western Region of Ghana, the school was originally known as the Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah Secondary School, then as Axim Secondary School, before finally being renamed to the Nsein Secondary School and then Nsein Senior High School.
Plan are in place to rename the school after Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, who founded it in 1960.
A ceremony has been scheduled for September 21, 2024 for that renaming of the school.
