Ghana Education Service reinstates GHANASCO headmaster

The Ghana Education Service has reinstated the Head and the Senior House Masters of the Ghana Senior High School in Tamale in the Northern Region.

The two were interdicted following a media report alleging that a toilet facility had been converted into a dormitory facility for students of GHANASCO.https://mypublisher24.com/ghana-audit-service-awarded-for-report-on-ambulance-fleet/

The videos of the GHANASCO students using the toilet cubicles as sleeping areas went viral and caused public outrage.

Subsequently, a committee was set up to investigate the report after the headmaster denied that no toilet facility had been converted into a dormitory for the male students.https://citinewsroom.com/2023/05/ghanasco-headmaster-reinstated-after-probe-into-toilet-dormitory-saga/

Sources at the regional Ghana Education Service office revealed to Citi News that, the reinstatement follows a recommendation by the committee tasked to investigate the issue.

According to Citi News, the school revealed that the headmaster Douglas Haruna Yakubu and the senior housemaster have both resumed their roles.

It may be recalled that following this, many organisations and institutions called on the GES to immediately reverse the decision.

Amongst the organisations and persons were the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT) and Builsa South MP Dr Clement Abass.

For GNAT, it said the move by the GES would affect the confidence of the embattled headmaster, Doughlas Haruna.

GNAT General Secretary, Thomas Musah speaking in an interview with Accra-based Citi FM on April 18, lambasted GES for taking such a decision.
