‘Don’t fail our teachers’ – Parents demand full implementation of strike deal
The National Council of Parent-Teacher Associations (NCPTA) has welcomed the suspension of the planned nationwide strike by pre-tertiary teacher unions, saying the resolution has protected the academic calendar and prevented further disruption to learners.
It expressed appreciation to the government and teacher unions for choosing dialogue over industrial action and urged the Ministry of Education, the Ghana Education Service and the Controller and Accountant-General’s Department to ensure that the agreed timelines are fully implemented.
The Council said it was relieved by the outcome of an emergency meeting held on Monday, August 31, 2026, between Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu and the leadership of the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT) and Pre-Tertiary Teachers Association of Ghana (PRETAG).
