The leadership of the three Teacher unions GNAT NAGRAT and CCTGH jointly written a letter to the Management of the Ghana Education service to review the teacher promotion examination results that were released recently to forestall any disturbances in the industrial space. “In your letter dated June 2, 2021, with reference number GES/DD-G/2/21/127 Signed by the Deputy Director General (MS), you indicated that out of 46,486 candidates Who were shortlisted for the promotion aptitude test, 29,465.” The unions indicated
candidates representing 63.3% were successtul.
However, we take exception to how the results were released to our members. The system was opened for results to be checked, those who were successful were congratulated, those who failed received their corresponding messages. Owners were asked to submit documents to HR at the GES Headquarters tor verification. Unfortunately, those who were asked to submit their documents for verification were subsequently told they were part of those who failed.
The teacher unions are not happy with this development since it compromises the sanctity and integrity of the aptitude test and the results.
The unions, therefore, call on the management of the Ghana Education Service (GES) to review the situation especially for those who were asked to bring their documents for verification. We demand that this review is done by Friday, June 11, 2021, to
forestall any disturbances in the industrial space.
We hope the management of the Ghana Education Service will treat this with the urgency deserves before things get out of hand.
