GES Probes Two Pepease D/A JHS Teachers Over Classroom Fight – Haruna Iddrisu
The Ghana Education Service (GES) has opened an investigation into the conduct of two teachers of Pepease D/A Junior High School in the Ashanti Region following a viral video showing them engaging in a physical fight on the school premises.
Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu disclosed this in Parliament on Tuesday, November 10, saying the Ashanti Regional Education Directorate had been directed to conduct formal investigations into the incident.
The video, which has circulated widely on social media, shows the two teachers exchanging blows inside a classroom. The incident was reportedly triggered by a disagreement involving a female colleague.
Mr Iddrisu said disciplinary proceedings would be initiated against the teachers in accordance with the GES Code of Conduct and the Public Services Regulations.
“Regarding the incident at the Pepease D/A JHS, the Ashanti Regional Education Director has been directed to conduct formal investigations,” he told Parliament.
“Disciplinary proceedings will be initiated in accordance with the GES Code of Conduct and the Public Services Regulations. We will ensure that the GES investigates the matter and appropriate sanctions are applied,” he added.
