The duty of parents goes beyond the home.
They are the first teachers of children (informally) and also the primary supporters of the educational journeys of their children.
As stakeholders in the educational system, they should have a voice in shaping the policies that affect their children's schooling.
However, under the current New Patriotic Party (NPP) government led by Akufo-Addo and Bawumia, parents have been sidelined, particularly in the implementation of key educational policies such as the Free Senior High School (SHS) programme.
