4 interdicted headteachers transferred after GES investigations
The Ghana Education Service (GES) has transferred four out of the seven headteachers who were interdicted in December 2023 for charging unapproved fees.
The headmistress of the Ghana Senior High School in Koforidua was interdicted on December 7 for allegedly selling unauthorized items to first-year students who reported to the school.
Seven other headteachers in senior high schools across the Ashanti Region were also interdicted for the same offence.
The Ghana Education Service interdicted these seven in separate statements dated December 8, 2023.
GES said it would conduct investigations, and the outcome would be known when completed.
Months after the investigations started, the Ashanti Regional president of the Conference of Heads of Assisted Secondary Schools (CHASS), Sulemana Yeboah, said GES had concluded the investigations.

“They [GES] have taken the decision where four of them [the headteachers] have been asked to go to their various schools and four of them have been swapped from their former schools to different schools. The headteacher of Kumasi Girls is now at Ntonsu SDA Girls, and the headteacher of SDA Girls is at Nkawie. The headteacher of Nkawie SDA Girls has been moved to Nkroful Agric.
“And in the direct swap, we have the Headteacher of Manso Adubia SHS moving to Tweapease Senior High School, and the headteacher of Tweapease Senior High School moving to Manso Adubia SHS. The last person moved from KSTS to Bosome Freho Senior High School to replace the headteacher, who is on retirement,” he said.
