Hope High now a full service centre

Out with the old and in with the new.

Hope High recently launched its full service centre, marking the beginning of big things to come. The school will now cater to the needs of pupils with mild to moderate learning disabilities in a mainstream environment.

Service centre staff will provide counselling facilities, remedial assistance, psycho-social support and psycho-education support to pupils on site. Pupils from schools in surrounding areas will also benefit from the new facilities.

Chief Education Specialist of Inclusive Education, Doctor Radebe delivered a riveting address at the official launch. He emphasised that all pupils should receive proper education, regardless of their learning capabilities.

“A full service school celebrates diversity through recognising potential, increasing participation, overcoming and reducing barriers, and removing stigmatisation and labelling”.

As of last month, Hope High is no longer, and will from now on be referred to as Hope Full Service School.

The school thanked the stakeholders for contributing to their success as an educational facility, as well as those who attended the launch.
