According to sources, the Ministry of Education is working on instituting a Dean of Disciplinary Affairs in the various senior high schools across the country.

Public Relations Officer of the Education Ministry, Kwesi Kwarteng, who made this known, noted that presence of such an office will help quell indiscipline happening in secondary schools.

Speaking to the media, Mr Kwarteng indicated that the Dean will collaborate with the Guidance and Counselling unit in each school.

The creation of a Dean of Disciplinary Affairs comes at a time when the Ghana Education Service (GES) and Chiana SHS are addressing a case of indiscipline.

Eight students of the school in November last year, rained insults on President Akufo-Addo in a viral video over the economic hardships that had bedeviled the country.

Following investigations, the students were dismissed. Shortly after the announcement, President Akufo-Addo intervened, instructing the GES to take into consideration other alternative disciplinary action.

Currently, the GES and the Chiana SHS are exploring other alternative sanctions. Meanwhile, the said students have been directed to report to school.

They are to see the Head Mistress of the school for further directives.
