According to the group, teaching is both Art and Science, hence teachers’ competence cannot be examined only by mere writing of exams. The six-credit hour exams cannot determine the competency of Ghanaian graduate teachers who have already passed through various stages of education and training before graduating as a teacher from approved and standardized Tertiary institutions in Ghana.
” Six Hundred Ghana Cedis (GHC 600.00), being the cost of registration for re-marking is too expensive. This sought to impose an economic burden on the unemployed graduate teacher”.
We believe that the introduction of the Ghana Teacher Licensure Examination is a deliberate attempt by the government to deny the newly qualified teachers’ direct postings.
Ghana Teacher Licensure Examination, since its introduction, has seen a lot of resistance from teacher unions in the country.
