Keep schools open despite teacher unions strike – GES to school heads
The Management of the Ghana Education Service (GES) has urged parents to remain calm in the face of the current indefinite strike embarked on by the 3-Teacher unions over the delay in negotiations of their Conditions of Service.
The Teacher Unions, including the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT) and the Coalition of Concerned Teachers (CCT) began their indefinite strike on Wednesday, 20 March 2024.
According to the GES however, it is closely monitoring the situation and will advise on “the way forward according.”
A statement issued by the GES, signed by its Head, Public Relations Unit, Cassandra Twum Ampofo, directed Heads of public Kindergarten and Primary Schools as well as Junior and Senior High Schools through the Regional and District Directors to “mobilise their Management teams to ensure the safety and well-being of all students in schools.”
It also revealed that “Regional and District Directors have further been directed to ensure that Heads keep schools opened and closely supervise all children who report to school pending further directives.”
