YEA signs MoU with GES to recruit 10,000 personnel as teaching assistants, others

These 10,000 personnel, who will be recruited under the MoU, will serve as kitchen assistants, security guards, and teaching assistants to augment and fill the gaps within the GES.

According to him, the latest Agreement will enable the YEA to recruit 4,000 kitchen assistants, 4,000 security guards, and 2,000 teaching assistants in a bid to beef up the staffing situation in schools across the country.

“This MoU is for the YEA to assist the GES to run educational services effectively; and in doing so, they need requisite staff, hence the YEA is coming on board to assist the GES in some respective areas by recruiting teaching assistants, kitchen assistants, and security guards for schools,” he said.

Alhaji Bashiru Ibrahim noted that persons who would be recruited as teaching assistants in the Senior, Junior, and Primary schools must have a minimum qualification of a diploma certificate.

He averred that the YEA has recognized the qualifications within the GES and decided to follow that to recruit teaching assistants under the program.

For both the security guards and kitchen staff, they will receive GH¢500 as a monthly allowance.

This, he said, will boost teaching and learning for better results in our schools.
