In a related development, the leader of the Innovative Teachers, Mr. Stephen Desu has called on the Ghana Education Service not to make the collection of the Teacher Mate 1 laptops a compulsory one and they will have no option than to sue the GES should deductions be effected against teachers who are members of the Innovative Teachers who do not apply for the laptop.
