Rop said that flowers and other good vegetations beautify the school environment apart from conserving soil erosion.

Rop also added that some plants are also a good source of learning for example flowers can be used as teaching aids for Science and Technology subjects.

He also motivated teachers to implement the Competence Based Curriculum as it is the best system in place.

As he is still new, he was on a familiarization tour of West Pokot sub county schools.
