IlearnIT Limited
Box NB 45
New Abirem, E/R
May, 2008
Introduction
IlearnIT Limited was established in October 2006 but started operating in August 2007
with a variety of responsibilities. One of these is to provide basic ICT appreciation course
dubbed as Computer Driving Licence Programme. This is a training package that equips
presentation, database, e-mail and internet access. Aside this, we are also into secretarial
work.
Problem
IlearnIT has come to the realisation that schools within the district do not have a common
examination which normally helps to maintain a certain standard in all schools. And even
if they do, we want to localise the examination to suit the aim and purpose of most of the
teachers.
Proposal
It is being suggested that as part of the aims and objectives of the Assembly to nurture
and seek the growth of local companies, IlearnIT Limited be given the opportunity to
type and print all examination questions for the district schools.
We have found out from the past that a similar project has been done. But it was printed
bitterly about the nature and type of questions set. This is because the questions are either
below or above the standard they expected. Such moves by the Assembly to at least get
the requisite standard for the students are admirable and commendable but we believe an
indigenous company should be considered if and only if they have the ability to meet the
standard desired by the Assembly. Fortunately for us (That is IlearnIT Limited) we are
even above that standard and can meet all your requirements.
In addition, IlearnIT will adopt a policy to invite all teachers in various schools to form
an association of examiners in the various subjects. Such move will help the subject
association to collaborate and come out with a syllabus for each term on which a
common examination will be set. Furthermore, the questions will be set by these subject
associations. Personally, I have spoken to some of the heads and teachers, they have all
examination question, the problem of “low or high” standard of question will be a thing
of the past. Research has proven that most of the examination questions set for the district
are either below or above the standard of questions expected by both teachers and
or not. But interestingly, nobody can be accessed on what he does not know or be
IlearnIT is coming out with the project specifically for your district. What we need is the
acceptance and authority to form what I called “Subject Teachers Association” for each
subject. This association within the district will have a sole responsibility of setting the
exams for the district on termly basic. We on the other side will collaborate with this
association and get the question, type and print at the end of every term.
gathered has revealed that when that possibility holds, most of the time, tremendous
efforts are made to get the supplier of that questions who might not be around,
consequently some innocent students might not take part in the examination. IlearnIT
Limited which is within the territory of the district can be contacted anytime to solve
such anomalies.
Finally, there is an adage in Twi which literally mean “when you are been chewed by a
family witches, part of your body will be left” IlearnIT limited believes so far as we are
all within one umbrella, excellence will be our hallmark. In addition, there is the need for
us to help each other grow and consequently, this will help develop the district we are
residing.
Since the cost related to printing is quite high, IlearnIT is introducing a package which is
reasonable for your outfit to consider. For each student to partake in the exams to be set
by IlearnIT Limited, we are proposing a total package cost of Gh¢ 0.30 for primary
students and Gh¢ 0.60 for Junior High Students. This is inclusive of answer booklets
Conclusion
Although heads, teachers and even the students are yearning for such a laudable idea, it
cannot be materialize if this proposal is not accepted. We are then pleading with you to
consider this proposal in order to fast tract things and start with the implementation.
