The  Francistown Education office has got no post of Principal Education Officer (PEO) I for inspectorate for pre-primary and primary education.

The Minister of Basic  Education Mr Bagalatia Arone said currently the office was coordinated by a Principal Education Officer II (inspectorate) with the assistance of two In-Service Principal education Officers II with primary school background and guided by the Chief Education Officer.

He highlighted that there were 21 primary schools under the Francistown Education Region.

Minister Arone  was responding to a question in Parliament from MP for Francistown East, Mr Billy Buti who had asked if the minister was aware that the Francistown Education Office as an inspectorate does not have a post for a Principal Education Officer (PEO) I for pre and primary schools and wanted to know who coordinates all the facilities for PEO I and how many schools were  covered.ENDS
