The Teacher Trainees’ Association of Ghana (TTAG) has called on the government to swiftly address the ongoing strike by the Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG).
CETAG claims that while an agreement was reached with their employers, the government’s failure to sign the agreement has rendered it null and void.
In a press conference, TTAG expressed shock and disappointment over the government’s inaction, despite previous assurances that the matter would be resolved.
Razak Soale, President of TTAG, emphasized the urgency of the situation and the necessity for prompt action to avoid further disruptions in the education sector.
Mr. Soale highlighted the impact of the strike on teacher trainees and the broader education system, stressing that continued inaction could have severe repercussions for the academic calendar and the quality of education. He urged the government to fulfill its commitments and sign the agreement to end the strike.
The TTAG’s appeal underscores the critical need for a resolution to the CETAG strike, emphasizing that a swift government response is essential to restoring normalcy and ensuring that educational activities resume without further delay.
