The Sandema Senior High School in the Builsa North district of the Upper East Region is appealing to the government to construct more dormitories to accommodate more students.
With a student population of 2,174 and 83 staff made up of teaching and non-teaching, the School which offers all six courses: Home Economics, Visual Arts, General Arts, Agriculture, Science and Business lacks the needed infrastructure to propel learning.
Some of the students are compelled to live in abandoned structures described by authorities as death-traps.
This came to light when the Old Students of the School donated roofing sheets valued at over GH¢3,000.00 to enable the school rehabilitate the girls dormitory that got ripped-off by rainstorm in April this year.
