COME CLEAR ON LICENCE
-GNACOPS to NTC


Following the release of the maiden Teacher Licensure Examination results, the National Teaching Council (NTC), has made statements that baffle the Ghanaian National Council of Private Schools (GNACOPS) and the latter is impressing upon the former to come clear on those statements.

NTC boss, Dr. Mrs. Evelyn Oduro, said that effective September this year all teachers, public and private, without teaching licence will not be allowed to enter the classroom.
She added that existing teachers will not write the exam but will undergo professional in-service training to upgrade themselves for the licence.
And those who failed the exam will have to re-sit during the second exam in March this year.

However, national executive director (NED) of GNACOPS, Enoch Kwasi Gyetuah, in an interview with LEARNING📖MATTERS founder, Osei Kuffour (Editor OK), strongly underscored the fact that they are at sea about the fate of their over 400,000 unlicensed private school teachers across the country come September 2019.

In a related development, Mr. Gyetuah, while commending Ghanaian journalists on their educational advocacies, has, however, implored them to probe statements from government officials on educational policies to give understanding to the lay person.
