The Pre-2022 BECE Teachers and Candidates Poll seeks answers to the long-held assertion that Teachers must be blamed for student failure. Must the teacher always be blamed, or must we lay the issue at the doorsteps of managers of our schools for poor leadership?
In any case, teachers always want the best for their candidates, but there are instances in which teachers wish a candidate fails his or her examination due to some bad experiences.
In this short but important survey by Ghana Education News, we ask four important questions. Kindly give us your responses
Who must take more blame for the failure of a BECE candidate?
Should those who teach be blamed more than those who pay the fees?
Students fail exams not because teachers did not teach, but because the students did not learn.
Triangulation Question: Teachers sometimes contribute to the failure of candidates.
