A teacher union, known as All Teachers Alliance Ghana (ATAG) is set to embark on a demonstration on Wednesday, December 15, 2021.
The protest, according to the group, is to drum home their displeasure over government’s decision to deduct an amount of GH¢509 from the teachers’ professional development allowance to fund the one-teacher, one laptop policy.
According to the Union, the deduction is being done at a time when a legal battle seeking to terminate the implementation of the initiative is ongoing hence the intended strike.
JoyNews’ Evans Mensah tonight hosted the following guests; National President of the National Association of Graduate Teachers, Angel Carbornu, Executive Director of Africa Education Watch, Kofi Asare and President of Innovative Teachers, Stephen Desu as they delved into the issues surrounding the “one teacher, one policy” case.
