CEED-MASSHA MEETINGS

We organize and encourage frequent meetings to promote professionalism and delivery of quality education in Central East Education Division. There are three levels of meetings that take place. At the bottom, we have cluster meetings which are conducted at cluster level. Central East Education Division has five districts namely Kasungu, Dowa, Ntchisi, Nkhotakota and Salima. Each district is divided into clusters which are composed of a group secondary schools under a specified geographical area. The headteachers meet at cluster level to discuss CEED-MASSHA activities so that there are tangible improvements in the delivery of secondary education and management of secondary schools.

The district committee meetings are conducted by the elected district committee members. The district committee oversees the activites of MASSHA members in the cluster committees. The district committees are very essential in ensuring coordination between the Divisional (main) committee and the cluster committees.

The divisional committee is a top (main) committee of CEED-MASSHA that operates at divisional level. The committee meets regularly to plan, organise, implement and review CEED-MASSHA activities at divisional level. The committee also discusses arising issues in the teaching profession and delivery of quality education in the Central East Education Division.
