The President of the National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT), Eric Agbe Carbonu, has appealed to the leadership of Ghana Education Service to let the association handle the matter of the 11 interdicted heads of senior high schools.
The GES announced in separate releases on December 10, 2023, the interdiction of eleven SHS headteachers in the Greater Accra, Ashanti, and Bono Regions due to their alleged involvement in collecting unapproved fees from new students.
Mr. Carbonu said at the launch of the 25th anniversary celebration of NAGRAT: “The leadership of the unions—the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), the Coalition of Concerned Teachers of Ghana (CCT), NAGRAT, and the Teachers and Education Workers Union (TEWU)—now want to take over the issue and sit down with the GES and the Ministry of Education (MOE) to discuss and negotiate on behalf of our headmasters and headmistresses who have been interdicted.
“I am very happy to inform you that the Deputy Director-General of the GES in charge of Management Services, Stephen Kwaku Owusu, has asked us to come to his office next week,” he added.
He also advised headmasters and headmistresses to adhere to directives from the Ghana Education Service and the Ministry of Education
