The news I have heard this evening makes me sad. Some headteachers in Manso Nkwanta District sent end of term report to the district GES and as a result the District Director wants to meet the teachers. Instead for him or her to go to the schools, the teachers must come to office hence school will close down tomorrow. This is too bad. Our children for our future is suffering because of poor judgment of our leaders. please I wish you can to find out and help if possible so that teachers will be in school. Thanks
