2021 Population Census: Teachers can take part – GES

by Wisdom K.E Hammond · May 4, 2021

The Ghana Education Service (GES) has refuted claims it intends to prevent teachers from participating in the 2021 population census.

In a letter sighted by Ghanaeducation.org, the GES further indicated that teachers can go to school and sign, give assignments, and leave after some hours of work to undertake such an important program.

“It is about time teachers become smart and use their time wisely as their salary is nothing to write home about” the statement added.

All shortlisted teachers should be smart enough to act accordingly, as Ghana needs highly knowledgeable officials to embark on such an important public assignment.

By this notice, the Ghana Education Service furthered that teachers are allowed to proceed with the Statistical Service for the 2021 CENSUS. Per this new development, teachers can take part in the 2021 CENSUS in various capacities.
