These Findings Are B-O-G-U-S !!!

' If education is expensive try ignorance'. An expression, an adage, a curse, a sage, every lecturer uses to warn students who refuse to patronise their hand-outs. Can a Ghanaian who has ever sat on a school desk deny ever hearing this? So our politrickstal Yutong drivers, their mates, trainees and cheap passengers need not remind us of this.

Teachers like me cannot sprint away from the low academic achievements of school children. The organisers cannot also excuse themselves. The participants are also into this. As you ask the cat to have mercy on the mouse, you must also caution the mouse not to be in sight when the cat is starving. Teachers recognise their inefficiencies and are constantly upgrading so why the 'hell' do imposters impose on them!

64% of school children cannot read and write and SO what? Who cares for the teacher who cares for the learner? Do teachers have a say in what they do? When teachers hit the streets, they were beaten, tear gas was fired. The firing squad was apologised to for what? Their act was condemned. Today it is here again.

How many teachers are presently writing end-of-semester exams and are still teaching?

Ghanaians have never been realistic and they will never be. Learners are not blamed, parents are not part and the drivers take no responsibility. This is an ochestration to relegate teachers' demands to the background. A learner spends 8 out of 24 hours with the teacher but it seems the teacher's classroom is a the mother's bossom. Socialisation as a subject says that the home's impact on learners is incomparable.

How much is the teacher paid that he is not allowed to farm, attend funerals, go to the hospital? How does he get paid if he does not go to the bank?

If education were a woman she would have been the best of prostitutes. Each government has its own definition of it. 3 or 4 years? Centralisation or the opposite? Free or paid? New or the old curriculum? Oh 'wo saa Ghana yi'

Teachers' contribution to this process story (failure) is less than 10%. BODMAS is needed here.

'30% of national budget goes into education, it is about 10% of our GDP' and so WHAT? The whole budget can be directed to education but until a feasible study is done to comprise all stakeholders, education will continue to fall for all.

I suggest we privatise the presidency. Won't a Japanese be the best?

On blakk86, i FADE OUT.
