AngloGold Ashanti empowers pupils in Obuasi on career choices

AngloGold Ashanti empowers pupils in Obuasi on career choices
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter


AngloGold Ashanti Obuasi Mine, has rolled out a comprehensive academic guidance and personal development programme for selected schools in Obuasi with a goal of aiding pupils to choose the right course of study as they progress to senior high school and beyond.


Most students in basic schools lack the right guidance to enable them make informed decisions about choosing courses that align with their strengths and interests leading to appropriate career choices.


The programme which is in line with AngloGold Ashanti’s Educational Improvement Programme under its 10-year Socio-Economic Development Plan, therefore, seeks to eliminate challenges that pupils face in choosing their career paths.


Ms. Ester Agyeiwaa Akoto, Social Development Officer, AngloGold Ashanti Obuasi Mine, explaining the rationale behind the programme at a session held for pupils of Jimiso Kakraba M/A, said the programme sought to address numerous challenges that impede the academic performances and personal growth of the pupils.


She said the programme also sought to help students to develop effective study skills, time management and organisational strategies.


Through the Mine’s Employee Volunteer Programme (EVP), which encourages staff members to engage and support the host communities, employees of AngloGold Ashanti were on hand to take the students through various academic guidance and coaching strategies.


The involvement of staff members is aimed at strengthening ties with the communities, while empowering the pupils to take charge of their educational journeys and personal growth.


On the possible outcome of the intervention, Ms. Akoto said it would help improve academic performance and retention rates of students and also enhance their personal skills that contribute to overall well-being and success.


Mr. Joseph Nunoo, a Circuit Supervisor at the Obuasi East Municipal Education Directorate, talked about the relevance of guiding students at the pre- senior high school level to make good career choices.
He said in the world of abundant opportunities, it was important for students to get the right coaching to enable them to navigate that path seamlessly.


“This is where career guidance and counselling are essential for these children at this level. I commend AngloGold Ashanti for coming out with this programme which will serve as a beacon of light to shape the students to make good decisions about their career path”, he added.


The participating students averred that the programme had broadened their horizon on how to manage their time and make good decisions.


The career guidance and counselling programme is one of several interventions implemented by AngloGold Ashanti Obuasi mine to improve quality of education in Obuasi.


These include the construction of a modern 9-unit classroom block at Sanso, training of teachers at the basic level, supply of text books to basic schools, donation of sanitary pads to school girls and the construction of examination printing centres for the Obuasi East and Obuasi Municipalities.
