Headmistress Allegedly ‘Striped’ Student ‘Naked’

Indiscipline in schools, in the midst of a ban on corporal punishment and human rights issues, is getting to a whole new level. Helpless teachers are finding ways of dishing disciplinary actions outside the classroom to school management.

The Headmistress of Juaso SHS is alleged to have ‘striped’ a female student ‘naked’ for wearing an unprescribed uniform on campus.  ‘Education alert’ Africa Education Watch has disclosed. The Education think tank urged district authorities to monitor security on the campus since the incident is causing uneasiness among the student body.

The district education directorate is investigating the issue at Juaso SHS. A call is also being made by Eduwatch to the G.E.S headquarters to be interested in the case.

In a related development, the Human Rights Reporters Ghana (HRRG) has also begun gathering facts on the issue to update itself with the full story before responding to the alleged striping of the student by the head of the school.
