I\u2019m looking forward to learning most of the pronunciation and the excellence in some of the things we do, especially with the Akan side of the contest. That is an area in which some of the Montessori schools are found wanting. But for me, being in Ashanti, you should be able to uphold your culture,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Relationships Manager at Luv Fm, Maxwell Frimpong-Manso, in his address at the event acknowledged the various schools for their participation.<br \/>\u200e<br \/>\u201cThis educational contest has over the years experienced exciting growth as new schools keep signing up to audition to compete. We appreciate all schools that qualified after the audition to contest in this edition,\u201d he said.<br \/>\u200e<br \/>He further urged the contestants to give their best in the contest. \u201cIn the coming weeks, the contesting pupils and schools in the Quiz are expected to offer our audience an exciting and intellectually stimulating show of prowess in competing,\u201d he added.<br \/>\u200e<br \/>The coach of Matta Devi School, Osei Prempeh, highlighted the positive impact the quiz has had on their students and commended Luv FM for its continued commitment to educational development.<br \/>\u200e<br \/>\u201cThe quiz has increased the knowledge scope of the students. It has increased our enrolment because of the mileage we had in the competition last year, especially. They are doing a great job,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Several new schools entering the competition expressed their anticipation for fresh talent and spirited performances.<br \/>\u200e<br \/>\u201cI am so prepared for the contest, one hundred per cent prepared. I want my opponents to have the best time of their lives, so should we,\u201d one contestant remarked.<br \/>\u200e<br \/>Over the next six weeks, the 36 participating schools will compete in groups of three, showcasing their knowledge across various subjects.<br \/>\u200e<br \/>The Luv FM Primary Schools Quiz will be broadcast live on the Joy Learning Platform on MultiTV, Luv FM, and other
