Very soon we will hear the side of the children and their parents. 400 absentees? That speaks a lot about descipline in the school. Something is wrong!

400 girls eloping school and you are talking about parents. If it is not a conspiracy, then there is something wrong with the school. Someone need to be asking the head teacher what she is doing wrong.

If it was the Good Friday, then the Headmistress must explain what arrangement she made for the students to celebrate the Good Friday. She failed in her duties otherwise how can 400 students leave the campus like that? Suspension is not the answer. She is a failure and must resign in dignity, period!

Do you think the students are out of their minds to just get up and escape in the night? Haven't you been a student before? The mass revolt tells that the authorities denied them their request to go home that day and celebrate easter because they possess the power to punish. This is old fashioned school management theory X style and must give way to more modern humane management style of school children during festivities. It wasn't an ordinary day or week-end for them to have behaved like that. The fact that they stayed during the easter doesn't mean they were prisoners, please. A more responsible approach would have averted the revolt. The suspension is illegal and the Regional GES Director must bring the Head to order. This is mere abuse of power in the name of discipline and learning.

Mass revolt?

It is girls itching like hell and sneaking in the night to go fu*&ing their arses on good Friday. There are times when senior students are retained to cope up with learning efforts of pre-exams time and may be allowed a day for the Easter celebrations.

These students have celebrated countless Good Fridays and after their education there will certainly be sooooo many Easters so what they hell do they want.

I repeat, they are have no discipline. They aren't allowed to go so they violated the codes of the school and must get punished. The school decides for them; if they aren't in accord, they MUST find their way somewhere else.

Is better they are sacked before is too late, or else they will spread Aids in the school. Looking at it, they are all prostitudes. Because that is the single Region where Ghana has more Ashawos than any other rigion.

Suspension is a very easy thing to do but the problem is still there. They must find out why the students went home in such numbers and for what purpose. Was it a recent development or has been with them for years?

Where do you THINK Ghanaian MPs and the Pastors children attend school in the UK? They are all in the boarding schools around the South East of England which is more convenient for them to visit whiles in London. Most rich Ghanaians lives in Ghana but their children are all in a boarding school in London.
Every county in the UK have a boarding school. There are 36 government boarding schools in England and one in Wales. there are more Independent (religious base)and private schools all around the UK.

If a total of 400 students really did that, then it implies something is wrong somewhere! either there is a breakdown of authority or there is a mischief! the head has been a student before and should know better and take a better decision than she has done! final year students about to write exams! ought to have been given INTERNAL suspension/punishment but not this hash decision. what will she achieve if all the students fail their final EXAMS!
