The President of the Coalition of Concerned Teachers, Ghana, King Ali Awudu, is worried about the frustrations that headteachers are going through in the line of their work.
He says the headmasters are unable to voice out their frustrations for fear of being dismissed.
Speaking in an interview with TV3’s Kemini Amanor, he said “No headteacher can come and sit here and make this discussion with you, he will leave here and go and his dismissal letter will be waiting for him,” he said.
In the area of teaching environment, he said ” you go to the schools and you are astonished as a Ghanaian, you ask whether this setting is qualified to be a classroom.”
Ali Awudu further expressed concerns about how the education sector in Ghana is being used for politics.
In his view, no sector in Ghana is used for politics more than the education sector.
This, he said, must stop.
“In this country, there is no sector that is used for politics more than the educational sector,” he said
He further stated that headmasters are unable to voice out the frustrations they go through in the line of their work for fear of being dismissed.
Regarding the salaries of teachers, Ali Awudu said when asked whether teachers in Ghana earn up to GHS3000, ” For being in the service for 19 years and with a second degree I earn GHS4066.”
