Guard against manipulation of NEI inspections

THE EDITOR, Sir:
I am writing to explore the role and mandate of the National Education Inspectorate (NEI).
We are already two months into the new school year and we look forward to the next round of NEI school inspections. I have full confidence in the chief inspector and the team at the NEI in executing their duties.
They must also be cautious of school administrations that are prepared to pull the wool over their eyes to paint a false picture of the realities in the education system. I would urge the NEI to be strategic in their interviews and sampling of school records, as some schools will manipulate the inspection process to skew the inspectorate report. Keep your eyes open.
