Scores of trained teachers from the Colleges of Education on Tuesday took to the streets of Accra to demand immediate postings after years of waiting despite meeting all required qualifications.
The group, calling itself the Coalition of Unemployed Trained Teachers, is made up of the 2022 and 2023 cohorts who say they have been left stranded by the government’s failure to post them, even though they have passed the Ghana Teacher Licensure Examination and completed their national service.
The protest began at Tema Station and is expected to continue to the Jubilee House, where the group plans to submit a petition to the presidency.
Speaking during the demonstration, Mintah Robert, one of the frustrated teachers, shared the hardship he has endured since completing his training.
