Constructions of these new school blocks form part of the educational infrastructure improvement been undertaken by the district Assembly to address various challenges in the beneficiary communities.

The new classroom block at Winkogo Goriko is additional structure for the primary school aimed at decongesting the existing classrooms due to high student population and a means of creating space to enroll more students. Posu Namongo on the other hand is a new junior high school that has been established for the community to ensure continuity after their primary education.

Authorities noted that until the establishment of the JHS students were compelled to travel long distances to access jhs education. This distance however discouraged a number of the students who dropped out of school. This is believed to stop with the establishment of the school.
