Recruitment Problem for My School Is Predominantly

¶ … recruitment problem for my school is predominantly the poverty levels that are quite high hence making many children not to be able to attend school. With the voucher system, there has been an upsurge of application for recruitments so as to take advantage of the benefits that come with the voucher. This then presents a new problem of overpopulating the school such that the teacher-student ratio will not be manageable.

The main aim of the school now is to ensure that the enrolment rates go higher and that more students get the chance to join high school to get education. The school is also focused on ensuring the voucher system works out to the benefit of the students and that the system attracts the maximum possible number of students to the school. The quality of education is also another fundamental consideration in light of the fact that the middle class school that is our competitor does have strong academic records, in order for our school to attract and retain students, there is need to strengthen our academic levels.

Our school should start recruitment based on the academic performance and the talent availability. This will enable our academic standards to go higher and give room to the most deserving students, who are poor, to explore their potential and make the best out of it. This method will also benefit the community as the talented students will be given a chance to explore their abilities in an environment that does not have any barriers like the financial barrier that would suffice if the voucher system is removed.

In order to be able to attract the quality students for the school, I would inform the parents of the set standards of intake and let them know the reason why this was done. I would also inform them that the target of the school is to meet the standards of the rival school that is a few minutes away from our school and the need to meet the standards that are set by that school. I would also inform them of the possibility of having better education levels that will enable their students to have higher qualifications that will secure them better jobs than just working in the motor industry with low wages. The quality education will enable their kids to progress to the university and colleges as is the case with the rival school and at the end get better jobs.

It is true that my school is disadvantaged as compared to the rival school. This is in light of the economic standards that exist. The higher economic standards of our rival school can enable them to engage their students in buying extra material that enable them to have a more thorough academic preparation than our school where we have to depend on basic provisions only.
