THIS RENTED PRESS IS AT IT BEST. WHO WILL FILL THE VACANCY OF THOSE WHO WOULD BE DISMISSED? THE UNQUALIFIED WHO COULDNT GAIN ADMISSION IN THE FIRST PLACE, RIGHT? WHAT A MESS IN GHANA?
There are a lot of people who are more than qualified and are on the waiting list! You are a joker.
Is that research group credible at all? Are they aware that students are unable to report to school because of their inability to pay their fees? Oh Ghana everybody wants to eat so they will do anything to eat.

Hmm.you scrap allowances to campaign come 2016.we will chop ndc money nyafu nyafu but you will never see top.foools.
Allowance was cancelled before you willingly applied. Many of you would not have gotten addmission or even collified and you know it. so what are you talking about?
You should think before you comment because not everybody is financial able
With this type of English, l wonder how you got admission into Training College in the first place!
Go for Student Loans
WAS IT MAHAMA WHO INTRODUCED THE ALLAWANCE? TWEAAAA
Haven't the Government ( Mahama ) and he so call Executives enjoyed allowance or free education before? if the also enjoyed it before and now they have scrap the allowance to me I dont have anything to say. but only God , th ...

Are you also aspiring to enter Training College with this type of English? God save our kids!
Emphatically "No", young thief! The allowance was introduced in 1991 when Mahama already had his degree. He did not enjoy it. However, if you want to enjoy what your fathers and grand fathers enjoyed earlier in life, first li ...

This is a propaganda, and nothing else.The most annoying thing is that, the so called loans are not disbursed on time and parents and students have to contract loan somewhere to pay their fees in the first place.
You went to Training College from Secondary School; was it free then?
its very simple..... the ministry should just absorb the unemployed graduates to fill the 40.000 vacancies as stated by the minister because we all received students loans when we were at the university and if the teacher tra ...

I am surprise this researchers say they feed trainees 3 times a day.if so why shd the principals force them to pay the feeding again!!! This foolish reasearchers shd always find out b4 they comment foolish people.
If u upgraded them 2 tertiary then give them degrees since the universities take degree.or do we have universities been given diploma.foolish ppl.wat about the nurses are the not also in short supply so why give them allawa
Te criticism has instigated...HAPPY is pronounced SAME in a country not very far on our east. So those we are training to teach our kids are so daft and dunce that they have to be told by others that the scrapping of the allo ...

When it comes issues like this, leave it for teachers like us to talk. As much as scrapping of allowance had increased enrollment, it had also kept some talents in the house. I had admission at KNUST in 2010 to offer Bsc. Bi ...

2.You paid teachers only three months after working for years.
3. You have put a ban on the recruitment of teachers for 10yrs

Der re graduate teachers unemployed because of embargo, what do u mean by shortage of teachers. this government n previous governments are all failures. dont link shortage of teachers to allowances
what a zuku professor our time Will come surely not too far
injustice is the grassroot of chaos.
why teacher trainees in such a situation.
Because their profession is considered worthless to Mother Ghana.
Gov't took a good decision to srcap alawa as this will ensure the right people who are interested in teaching are trained. Many people go to COEs just b/c of alawa, not b/c they choose the profession. For the past years, recr ...
