No New Uniforms For Teachers – Director-General of GES Refutes Claims

The Ghana Education Service (GES) has dismissed reports that it has prescribed uniforms for teachers in the country.

Social media was flooded with pictures of the brown uniform reportedly prescribed by the GES over the weekend.

But speaking to Kwami Sefa Kayi in an interview on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo', the Director-General of the Ghana Education Service (GES), Prof Opoku Amankwah debunked those reports.

He said there's no way GES will come out with a uniform and put it on social media; adding such decisions are not made randomly.

“The GES has not prescribed any uniforms. When GES proposes something we don’t go to social media to display it, we don’t have anything to do with that. We've not even discussed anything on uniforms,” he said.

"Our lawyers will investigate and we'll take the appropriate action when necessary," he added.
