Pauk Pin Kwin Mon National School in need of curriculum books more space for students

November 4, 2022

HURFOM: The community leaders from Pauk Pin Kwin village, Yebyu Township had built a Mon National Primary School that was first opened in June, 2022.

The Mon National Education Committee (MNEC) provided the school with a limited amount of educational materials.  The school committee was forced to buy additional school materials and books from the local market.

We’ve got some curriculum books from the Mon National School in Yaw Thit. But it isn’t enough for all students. Some students don’t have curriculum books. So teachers have to write down on the blackboard and students have to copy it, said the Headmistress Mi Jam Par Soon.

As the government schools have been closed due to security concerns many students have registered at the Mon National School,  so that the school has accommodation problems.

Even though it is a newly constructed school, there are not enough desks and chairs. Now we’re planning to construct a new two-storey school. The construction will hopefully start in the next three months. The project is supported by the village. A senior monk Monk Aot Jae said he would support the effort with two million Kyat. I think he’ll give the money at the start of the construction, said a member of the School Committee.

The Pauk Pin Kwin Mon National Primary School has 449 students and 13 teachers. The salary of schoolteachers has been supported by the MNEC and the School Committee.

The MNEC has about 140 schools and 20,000 students.
