Teacher unions call for suspension of Pre-tertiary Education Bill

Teacher Unions in Ghana have called on Parliament to suspend any further deliberations on the Pre-tertiary Education Bill until they have resolved all outstanding issues with the Ministry of Education.

"This notice we serve the Parliament of Ghana. We wish to caution that should our stance be disregarded or ignored, we pre-tertiary education unions would advise ourselves accordingly," they said.

The teacher unions, comprising the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT), Teachers and Educational Workers Union (TEWU) and the Coalition of Concerned Teachers (CCT)-Ghana, said this at a press conference in Accra today (Friday).
