Education Advisor Promotes Patriotic Immersion Ideals at Tougan General Education College

Sourou: The Senior Education Advisor (CPE) of the Tougan General Education College (CEG), Justin Bako, has taken the initiative to perpetuate the ideals of the first edition of the patriotic immersion within his establishment. Since the end of the first edition of the patriotic immersion of the 2025 baccalaureate graduates, Justin Bako has undertaken to instill the same values in all the students of his establishment.

According to Burkina Information Agency, since the beginning of the 2025-2026 school year, Bako has been teaching civic and patriotic values to students every morning during the flag-raising ceremony. He addresses topics such as peace, responsible internet use, environmental protection, respect for others, and the upkeep of public property. These lessons are given at the foot of the flag, before classes begin. Bako explained that this initiative aims to promote the idea of patriotic immersion and to prepare all the students at his school to become good citizens.

Oumou Fayette Isabelle Tindano, a student in the third grade at the CPE establishment, welcomed the initiative, stating that since it started, students have learned a lot and their behavior has improved. The initiative has also positively influenced their living environment and work ethic.

Seydou Sosso, the English and French teacher at the Tougan CEG, appreciated Bako's initiative, noting improvements in discipline and first-term averages, which he attributes to the CPE's efforts. School principal Ms. Haby Dem©/Som© also expressed her appreciation for Bako's work, highlighting improvements in cleanliness, classroom maintenance, and punctuality.

Ms. Dem©/Som© urged Bako to continue this commendable initiative and invited all staff to support and follow his lead for the benefit of learners.
