Venidora Oliveira – The Director Director for Corporative Services of the Ministry of Education (ME) Antoninho Pires said his ministry continues to lack school inspectors.

He added the ministry currently only has 64 school inspectors for hundreds of schools across the country and because of this some schools have not yet been assessed.

"For example in Aileu alone there are 60 schools but there is only one inspector so it is impossible to conducts assessments to all the schools in a short period of time," said Director Pires in Dili.

He said there should be one school inspector per municipality and one per every administrative post. DG Pires said he is very happy with the inspection work of currently inspectors but that he hopes nonetheless that more will be hired.

Meanwhile Member of Parliament MP Jorge Teme urged the government look into this issue and hire additional school inspectors because their role in conducting the assessment of schools is very important.

"In Ermera the population has been questioning why inspectors do not go to schools," said MP Teme.
