PARON (Pajhwok): More than half of the schools in Nurgaram district of eastern Nuristan province are without buildings and most classes have no teachers, hampering the education process.
Syed Khalilullah Haidari, Nurgaram district education officer, told Pajhwok Afghan News only eight out of 27 schools in the district had buildings and the remaining 19 had no buildings and as a result students were facing numerous problems.
The schools that lack buildings include three high schools (two for boys and one for girls), twelve primary and as many secondary schools. Haidari said 5,700 students, including more than 1,800 girls . . .
