Patience Naki Mensah, the interdicted Headmistress of Ghana Senior High School (GHANASS) in Koforidua,Eastern region, has offered a robust defense against allegations of selling unauthorized items to Form One students.
In response to the Ghana Education Service’s (GES) interdiction, Miss Mensah emphasized compliance with the National Prospectus, allowing schools to tailor their specifications.
She said GHANASS does not use the standard white and check uniforms, opting for unique colors of yellow shirts and leaf green trousers/skirts.
She said,to facilitate parents’ understanding, the school commissioned a seamstress to create samples of the new ceremonial dress, priced at Ghc200, and the track suit at Ghc250 per set.
According to the headmistress,Parents were given the option to purchase immediately or at a later date.
Mrs. Mensah underscores that the Ghc200 track suit aims to protect students from mosquito bites during evening preps while maintaining school uniformity and alleviating the financial burden on parents.
Her detailed explanation forms part of her defense against the alleged unauthorized sales, pending further investigation into the matter.
