“They have sent teachers or students who have done let’s say health education to come and teach Maths, they sent more of Asante Twi teachers to us here but we don’t do Asante Twi and even most of them indicated that they didn’t do Twi so you could see that it has been done in a bit of haste,” he lamented.

He added that some teachers with qualification in health education have been posted to teach Maths.

This he explained as unreasonable as they would not be knowledgeable enough to impart the students with the needed information.

The headmaster added that he had written a letter to the Regional Directorate of GES, releasing the teachers for reposting while requesting for qualified teachers for specific subjects needed.
