Ten final-year students of the Koforidua Technical Institute (KOTECH) have been dismissed from the school for allegedly reporting late to the Assembly grounds from their dormitories, sparking concerns over their academic future.

The affected students were barred from writing their ongoing mock examinations, a move that could significantly impact their preparation and eligibility for the upcoming final exams.

According to sources within the school, the decision was enforced as part of disciplinary measures to instil order and punctuality.

However, the severity of the punishment has raised eyebrows among parents, education advocates, and the students themselves.
