The more times I listen to the audio recording of the meeting held on campus on Monday 20 June 2022 regarding the recall of the said "disabled" students, the more frustrated I am that students are still being denied their right despite the intervention of the Minister of Health, Hon Kwaku Agyemang Manu.
The fact that the director made no effort to carry out any instruction given to her by the health minister could be clearly confirmed in the audio. She asked the students present what they knew about the directive and finally told them that the minister had asked her to recall them to repeat the class but not to be promoted as they sought. Again, she did not try to inform the students concerned about the directive given in this way.
He is simply an evil person with nefarious intentions not only against disabled students, but against the entire school population. Subsequently, the writer called for her expulsion from school.
Before I go any further, let me pause to brief the general Ghanaian public on how the said headmistress's husband is supporting his wife, Mrs. Gifty Helena Dwamenu Amoah. This man living in the United States of America (USA), who should better understand how incompetent, ignorant and totally incompetent his wife is, rather applauds her for her actions in firing or demoting some one hundred and sixty. -eighty students.
To the husband, does he know how his wife arrived at her unprofessional, incompetent and heartless decision to fire/demote the students? Do they understand how students are graded by grade point average (GPA) to determine whether or not they are eligible for promotion?
For the layman, GPA is a number that indicates how well or how high you did on average in your courses. From my investigation and the evidence available to me, all or most of the "disabled" students have earned a GPA that qualifies them for promotion.
Why did their GPA keep changing on their student portal? That's just by the way.
The husband, Mr. Amoah, in his telephone interview with a journalist in Ghana said, "What does that Rockson Adofo living in London, an armchair journalist, know?" Mr. Amoah claims to have been a journalist himself when he was in Ghana.
Let me define armchair journalism so that people can understand how the alleged husband of the headmistress, who although currently residing in the US, does not know how Covid-19 has affected schools to culminate in the promotion of students without sitting for final or final exams. .
"Armchair journalism is a term used to describe reporting done by a reporter from his office without going into the field and interviewing sources."
If my reporting from London reveals the truth of the stories prevailing on the ground and the content is correct, does it matter how I get my information? Isn't it better to deal with the content than where and how it is obtained?
Anyway, the husband can be just as bad as the wife, because birds of a feather flock together. And as the father is like the son, so is the husband like the wife.
Back to my main story, the headmistress runs the college as if she is irrational and lacks any knowledge of school management. My almost hour-long interview with one of the teachers at the school revealed many malpractices committed by the principal. The most eye-catching of these, the serious ones of course, is how they force lecturers to teach subjects other than those they have studied and qualified in.
To make it clear to those of us who are not medically trained and therefore may not understand, when I mention subjects taught in nursing and midwifery colleges, I will use subjects known to be taught in normal schools, to show how badly the principal runs the school. .
A teacher who went to university to study, graduate and get a qualification in, say, geography, is forced by the principal to teach, say, chemistry this semester and mathematics the next semester. When the tutors raise any objection, he tells them that as long as they are employed as tutors in the school, they should be allowed to teach any subject he assigns. What utter madness!
The teacher kept telling me that the most annoying part was when she asked you to teach, say, physics, while your major was history, and you took about two weeks to research to prepare your physics notes, a day to start with physics. lesson with students, he calls you to start teaching biology.
Therefore, tutors do not always fulfill this task; to become a blind man leading another blind man. Both people end up falling into the pit.
Neither the teacher nor the students will benefit from the subject or lesson, which will affect their results.
Again, she ensured the transfer of all long-term and experienced lecturers from the university. She will ensure that any teacher who objects to her school management style is removed from the school.
The lecturer confided in me many things that do not bode well for both lecturers and students.
I will conclude here with an appeal to the Minister of Health to investigate this allegation and those he may already be aware of. It is not for the good of teachers, students and Mampong community.
From everything I've been told about her by reliable sources like being an armchair journalist, I'm calling for her expulsion from the dorm. She is not fit to be a school principal if someone cares about the welfare of the students, teachers and Mampong community.
