The Ghana Senior High School’s Headmaster and Senior Housemaster have been asked to step aside to allow for further investigation into the claim regarding the school converting a toilet facility into a dormitory.
According to the Ghana Education Service, the case would be reviewed by the Regional Director of Education and reported back in two weeks.
The situation was regarded by GES as worrisome and unpleasant.
According to the GES statement, despite the fact that 1790 openings were declared for admission, only 1467 students enrolled.
It was stated that the school is anticipated to have enough capacity to accommodate students travelling from 300 miles away, thus it was sad that some students used toilet cubicles as dormitories.
It would be recalled that Rainbowradioinkine.com reports that due to a lack of available student housing, the school converted the WC facility into a dormitory.
Reporting from the school, Rainbow Radio’s Prince Kwame Tamakloe said the students who sleep on the Water Closet toilet keep their trunks, chop boxes and others items in the toilet where they also sleep.
Some of the students who spoke with him claimed that a lack of space in the school had forced them to sleep in the lavatory.
When asked if they disinfected the toilet before sleeping inside, they said no.
