The principal of Kombeni Girls Secondary School made a warm gesture as Grade 10 admissions started: she greeted students and parents in the school uniform.
Parents widely approved of the move, saying it showed the principal’s dedication and made them confident that their daughters were entering a supportive setting.
One parent said, Seeing her in uniform made me believe that my child is in good hands.
Grade 10 admissions this year involved long lines and busy procedures throughout the country.
Some parents handled the paperwork and payments easily, but others struggled with fees and rising expenses.
Waiting in lines and dealing with paperwork left some families tired, so small acts of caring, like the principal’s personal approach, were very welcomed.
But at Kombeni Girls, admissions day was handled with care. Teachers assisted parents through the process, making sure students registered and got familiar with the school in an organized way. Some people watching noted that the principal’s presence in uniform set a tone of discipline, commitment, and friendliness.
People on social media shared photos of the principal with the students, applauding her leadership. Many commented that her act was both symbolic and realistic, showing that school leaders take part in the educational process, instead of being just administrators.
As the school year starts, Kombeni Girls Secondary School seems to have found a balance between professionalism and warmth, assuring parents and students that the school will give a supportive and structured learning space.
