Three staff members at the Somé Senior High School in Agbozume have been interdicted.
The action by the Ghana Education Service (GES) comes after the Matron, Bursar and Storekeeper of the school in the Ketu South Municipality were apprehended on suspicions of stealing food supplies designated for students residing in the school's boarding facility.
According to reports, the alleged misconduct by the three staff members is believed to have persisted over an extended period.
Prompted by the interception of the stolen goods, Ibrahim Ayuba, the Assembly Member representing the Logove Electoral Area, facilitated the arrest of the implicated individuals.
The intercepted items, reportedly including tin tomatoes, mackerel, detergents, and insecticide spray, were discovered in possession of the matron and within the bursar's vehicle.
In the GES statement dated May 27, the move is to allow the trio - Richard Ametorxe, Yorm Dzikumu and Alex Obuadi - to make way for investigations into the incident.
"The three officers are to hand over to the headmaster of the school," the statement added.
The GES also gave the committee two weeks to submit to management its report.
