Information reaching DAYBREAK indicates a creeping corruption culture into local government run public schools, with pupils and individual schools being levied to see off retiring metro education heads who supervise public school heads during official ceremonies.

DAYBREAK learnt that such monies are not paid from an existing welfare fund, but charged to pupils account as levies to make up the GH¢220 quota that is paid by the school
