Students attack teachers for not allowing them cheat in WASSCE

Final year students of Zabzugu Senior High School in the Zabzugu
District, Ghana, have attacked their teachers with stones and
other dangerous weapons for not allowing them to cheat in their
final year examination.
According to Adomonline, the angry students vandalised school
properties, smatched doors, television sets, and windows. They
said it was their right to copy or send texts books into the
examination hall.
A student who did not want his name mentioned said, “Even though
they did not have any pact with their teachers to allow them to
cheat, they were reliably informed that teachers from other
schools aid their students by allowing them to copy.”
A terrified teacher of the school while confirming the attack
said the only crime they (teachers) committed was not allowing
the students to copy during the West Africa Senior Secondary
School Certificate Examination. He added that he was only alive
because he didn’t take refuge in his house because the students
went to his house with stones.
He said, “The students felt they had a right to send their
notebooks and textbooks to the examination hall, a right they
the teachers are yet to come across in any of the examination
regulations.
“As a result, the students mobilized themselves and stormed the
school, vandalizing properties and threatening to kill any
teacher they came across.”
The teachers have therefore vowed not to supervise or invigilate
the rest of the exams unless heavy security was provided.
But the District Chief Executive of Zabzugu Hon. Iddi Ahmed is
has called on authorities to ensure that the problem between the
students and the teachers is resolved.
