Samuel Korley Foundation Donates Mathematical Sets To B.E.C.E Candidates In Greater Accra



Samuel Korley, a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), on Friday 12th November, 2021 donated mathematical sets to all registered 2021 Basic Education Certificate Examination (B.E.C.E) candidates in Aim school complex and Pauline school complex all in Kpon-Katamanso  municipality in the Greater Accra Region.


The mentioned schools has a total number of 80 registered candidates for the 2021 B.E.C.E.

Presenting the items to the schools, the Executive Director of Samuel Korley foundation, Mr. Samuel Korley recounted his experience when he sat in for the B.E.C.E some years ago and this motivated the foundation to embark on this generous gesture.

Mr. Samuel Korley again said the rationale behind the presentation was to assist candidates to pass the exam with ease.

He said, the donation of Mathematical Sets became necessary looking at the current health dangers associated with sharing of items and body contacts as a result of COVID-19 and examination rules and regulations.

Due to this, Samuel Korley Foundation deemed it fit to come to the aid of all BECE 2022 candidates in the above mentioned schools with this important instrument needed for the examination.”

The foundation also promised one candidate of Aim school complex who do not have school uniform to write the exams a new uniform before the exams begin.

Mr. Korley also urged the students to desist from all forms of examination malpractices, and rely more on what they have been taught in school.


Photages of pupil receiving the items






Receiving the items,  the headteachers of Aim school complex , Mr. Emmanuel Oduro, expressed his profound appreciation for the wonderful intervention of the NGO.


According to Mr. Oduro “mathematical sets is one of the great instrument students need when it comes to mathematics. It is very prudent for every basic school student to own a mathematical set and learn how to use it even before their final exams. It is rather unfortunate that most of our students can’t afford this instrument.”

He also stated that this has really come at the right time and will serve a very good purpose.


On behalf of the 2021 BECE Candidates, Madam  Irene  of Pauline school complex , sent forth her gratitude. “We are very grateful to Samuel Korley Foundation, May God bless their work.” She added “It’s not all of my pupil who can afford to buy a math set, 


Notably, this is not the first donation exercise Samuel Korley Foundation has embarked on, they donated some assorted items such as non alcoholic beverages, rice, cooking oil, computers, clothes, shoes etc. to some aged and needy people in Twifo Ati-Morkwa District of Central Region during the Easter festivity in the year 2021.


The 2021 BECE examination is scheduled to begin on Monday, 15 November 2021, and will end on Friday, November 19, 2021.
