The Ghana Education Service (GES) has begun investigations into alleged poor treatment of teachers during the first week of the first phase of the ongoing workshop on the new standard based curriculum.
The Ghana Education Service has indicated in a statement by its Head of Public Relations Unit on Saturday,August 17,2019.
The statement said the attention of the GES has been drawn to the plates of insipid food served and in some cases not befitting packaging at some centres.
This the GES described as really unfortunate.
However,the GES assured the teachers that Investigations have begun to find out why and how this happened in some of the centres.
”Some teachers at some centres also did not sign for their GH 50.0 T&T because they wanted the GH50 allowance to be added before. This also created scenes too.” The GES confirmed.
