NCPTA’s Have Spoken Against The Re-Opening Of Schools, Claims It Is Disastrous





The National Council of Parent-Teacher Association have spoken against the re-opening of schools amidst the rise of this COVID-19, says it will be disastrous.

A statement sighted by mynewsgh.com and signed by the National President Alexander Yaw Danso said, 

NCPTAs on behalf of parents believes that it is premature to reopen schools for the following reasons: There is no sufficient evidence based on science and data from the Ghana Health Service (GHS) and other credible health agencies that the infection rate has taken a nosedive consistently to acceptable levels to warrant schools reopening.



Parents foresee a huge difficulty in ensuring strict compliance of the protocols among children particularly the social distancing, wearing of nose masks for long hours and getting results on time for the proposed regular testing before students move in and out of school premises daily.

Day students both at Basic and Senior High School (SHS) walk long distances to and from school in groups. Others board public buses to and from school. These scenarios highly expose our students to the Coronavirus.
