Toase (Ashanti Region) -- The Minister of Education, Professor Christopher Ameyaw-Akumfi has warned that students who would be dismissed by their schools for acts of indiscipline would not be admitted into any school again.
He said schools were not breeding grounds for indiscipline and warned students to be of good behaviour. Professor Ameyaw-Akumfi gave the warning at the fourth speech and prize-giving day of the Toase Secondary School in the Atwima District of Ashanti on Saturday.
It was under the theme: "The impact of rural school in national development." He said the current situation where students took the law into their own hands to riot and destroy school property were unacceptable and called on parents to help school authorities to stamp out these act of indiscipline.
Professor Ameyaw-Akumfi said the government was committed to improving at least one senior secondary school in each of the districts as a means of uplifting standards of education in rural communities and mentioned the Toase secondary school as one of the schools selected for the programme.
In an address read for the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, he expressed concern about the increasing spate of indiscipline in schools and advised students to follow laid down procedures to resolve their grievances.
