Kalabule "Fraud" in Senior High School Placement in Ghana.
It is very repulsive to note how Ghanaian parents and prospective senior high school SHS hopefuls/candidates suffer irresponsible technological/ institutional failure and gross incompetence of our educational officers, this appalling blight in the recent years so called computerized placement system into SHS, in this day and age that every child especially girls are encouraged to go to school in order to curb street-ism, and other social vice alike and to produce inventive and industrious human resource to salvage our ailing economy.
It is however sad to note that Ghana is reneging on this principles and responsibilities, to this end fundamental right to education of children is trample, usurpers and unscrupulous personage have taken advantage of the system failure and have coronet themselves as SHS placement agents and are extorting scarce monies from gullible and desperate candidates and their parents on the pretext of securing them admission into SHS, it is really sad to see how parents and their wards mostly girls get frustrated and humiliated at the various offices of the GES around the country.
In a nutshell , our system is very unjust and unfair to the larger population government institutional staff are reneging on duties they are mandated to do by the constitution, that has made our system so putrid in such a way that one has to know a big man some where before you succeed in your endeavor, our fundamental rights don’t matter any longer, the earlier this shame is remedy the better because this precedence is nurturing the ground for aggressive public anger and resistance any time some if the right things are not done
In my case through some so called big man I know i succeeded in attaining an admission for my kid sister, though am quiet relief with that, I remain concern and sympathetic to many who do not have my kind of connection or know any big man in any set up, meanwhile education is an inalienable fundamental basic right of every citizen (child) especially girls of every civilized country which Ghana is not exclusive, indeed SHS is the twilight of every Child career so far as education is concern not even to talk of a quality one.
I think is about time our institution resurrect from COMA and commence effective work in the interest of the citizenry, I urge the Ghana education service, west African examination council, ministry of education, youth, social welfare and women’s and children’s affairs, to give a second thought to the reckless technological failure (Computerize Placement System) and live up to their constitutional duties in offering reasonable and responsible service to the tax paying public, which I believe is prerequisite to nation building as well as achieving the Millennium Development Goals
