St John's Teacher Beatings: Education Ministry Bares Teeth

A Deputy Minister of Education in charge of Basic Education, Alex Kyeremeh has condemned an attack on female teachers at the St. John's primary and JHS school at Accra New Town by some thugs, Tuesday.

The attack follows a decision by one of the teachers to discipline one of the pupils for misbehaving.

The 15-year-old student, Aisha Adam who is accused of inviting thugs to attack her teacher, was punished and sacked from class by her teacher for being unable to pronounce the word “entertainment” during reading lesson and misbehaving.

She allegedly went home to call her brothers who came to beat up the teacher who punished her.
