Teacher Unions in the country have kicked against plans by the Ghana Education Service (GES) to re-open schools should President Nana Akufo-Addo decide to review the ban on public gathering.
Teacher Unions kicking against the move include: the Ghana National Association of Teachers, National Graduate Association of Teachers, Coalition of Concerned Teachers Ghana and the Teachers and Educational Workers’ Union.
In a letter to the Director-General of the GES, Professor Kwasi Opoku-Amankwa, the Teacher Unions argued that, schools, if re-opened ,could become incubation centres for the pandemic given the unlimited social interactions and movements among students.
