Community School Inspector Employed
In July 2007 the Abbey Christian Brothers' Grammar School employed a school inspector to oversee work at three Community Schools in Livingstone Zambia. The three community school are Linda, Libuyu and Mwandi.
Mr Teddy Nyirongo (a retired Headteacher) took up the post at Libuyu Community School in July 2007, which was extended in May 2008 for a further one year. Mr Nyirongo was replaced temporarily in October 2008 by Mr Bbalo, a former Misistry of Education employee. Sr. Emmanuel of Sisters of St. Francis took over in June 2009. The main task is to co-ordinate the educational activities for the two community schools.
The co-ordinator is based in an office at the newly refurbished Abbey twinned Libuyu Community School in Livingstone.
