Kassena-Nankana West Teachers Resume Classes as Education Director Steps Aside

Teachers in the Kassena-Nankana West District have resumed academic activities after suspending lessons in protest against the District Education Director. Their return follows the Director’s decision to step aside, a move seen as a resolution to the recent tensions affecting the education system in the district.

The teachers had earlier laid down their tools due to alleged administrative issues, poor working conditions, and dissatisfaction with leadership. Their decision to return to work comes as education stakeholders step in to restore calm.

“We are committed to our duty as teachers, but we needed our concerns to be addressed first. Now that leadership has responded, we can focus on the students,” one teacher stated.

Key Issues That Led to the Boycott

???? Administrative Disputes: Concerns over leadership style and decision-making.
???? Teacher Welfare Issues: Complaints about poor working conditions and lack of support.
???? Intervention from Authorities: Pressure from education stakeholders to find a resolution.

What’s Next?

With teachers back in class, education authorities are expected to:

✅ Appoint a New Director: Ensure proper leadership for the district.
✅ Address Teachers’ Concerns: Improve working conditions to prevent future disruptions.
✅ Ensure Academic Stability: Support students to recover lost time.

Conclusion:

The return of teachers marks a positive step toward stability in Kassena-Nankana West’s education system. However, authorities must implement long-term solutions to prevent future disruptions and ensure a smooth learning environment.
