The Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT) has urged for an urgent stakeholder involvement to create ways to tackle indiscipline in schools.
The association said, it’s imperative for parents, teachers, educational executives, civil society organizations, and school leaders to collaborate in addressing the issue of indiscipline for the betterment of the nation.
The recent behavior exhibited by students necessitates urgent action.
“We must convene a stakeholders meeting to address this issue promptly. Failure to do so may result in our future leaders catching us off guard,” emphasized Thomas Tanko Musah, the General Secretary of GNAT.
These remarks come in the wake of a tragic incident at O’Reilly Senior High School in Accra, where a final-year General Arts student lost his life after being stabbed during an altercation with a classmate.
The argument, which ensued after completing an examination paper, escalated into physical violence, leading to the fatal stabbing of Edward Borketey Sackey.
