A vast on-site monitoring operation was conducted this Monday by the local authorities of Mascara wilaya, aimed at closely evaluating schooling conditions in several educational establishments across various communes, particularly regarding student care, while checking the operational status of strategic infrastructures related to food security, notably storage capacities, processing, and availability of cereals and seeds.
Unannounced visits to several schools were carried out early in the morning by Wali Fouad Aïssi to directly assess schooling conditions. During his tours, he focused on the smooth running of classes, classroom organization, the quality of canteens, and student comfort, ensuring that all care measures were respected.
He also insisted on the need to guarantee a motivating and secure educational environment for all students, in accordance with the directives of the high authorities, and recalled the importance of rigorous monitoring to continuously improve the services provided.
In the same context, daïra chiefs conducted inspections in their respective districts. In Aouf, monitoring focused on Ghilas Ahmed Ben Mohieddine School, where students participated in the national flag-raising ceremony, symbolizing the constant link between the administration and the educational environment.
In Aïn Fekan, attention was given to school transport, meals, and heating in primary schools in the douars, while in Aïn Fares, the cleanliness of premises and pedagogical supervision were at the heart of the inspections. These visits made it possible to ensure the regularity of school services, identify areas for improvement, and directly gather concerns from teachers and students, thereby strengthening proximity between local authorities and the population.
Additionally, the wali also inspected strategic infrastructures related to food security, with an in-depth visit to the main depot of the Cereals and Dry Vegetables Cooperative in Mascara. He observed the operation of seed production lines, cereal storage and processing, while receiving technical explanations on the infrastructure’s capacities and its role in supporting farmers.
This visit underscored the importance of these facilities to strengthen food security, support national production, ensure regular market supply, and anticipate the future needs of agricultural sectors, in line with State directives.
