Astute journalist Serwaa Amihere has shared a recent observation she made that she somewhat finds it a troubling trend thriving in some Ghanaian schools.
Serwaa Amihere who took to Twitter on Wednesday, February 22, pointed out that some teachers have begun recording their interactions with pupils and publishing them on social media for likes and engagements.
“Recently, there is a practice where some teachers in schools in Ghana, record an interaction between their pupils and put it on social media for likes and engagements,” she disclosed.
Amihere also highlighted her worry that, despite their best efforts to emphasize the difficulties that schoolchildren have in obtaining education and seeking assistance, these videos frequently make fun of young kids.
As a result, she has urged the Ghana Education Service (GES) and the Ministry of Education to act quickly to put an end to this behavior among some instructors.
“I entreat the Ministry of Education and GES to end this practice by some teachers because it is not right and can destroy the confidence of the kids
“The digital footprints such videos will leave will go a long way to hurt some of these kids, and we need to come together with a common voice to end this and let us protect our kids,” she stated.
