Mr. Wilson Sossion praised KEPSHA for an elaborate peaceful transition of leadership during KEPSHA's 11th Annual Conference . He stressed that there was need for consultation among all stakeholders on all matters of education in the country. He further thanked the court for granting teachers the 50-60% pay rise, and said teachers expected TSC to honor the court order.
Mr. Sossion urged the Government to hire more teachers as this would improve the quality of education. He noted the roadmap to quality education was: quality teachers, quality teaching tools and quality learning environment. He noted privatization of education would lead to de-professionalizing teaching.
He stressed that the government must increase budgetary allocation to education. Mr. Sossion stated that the security of teachers was paramount hence teachers would not work in unsafe areas. He raised concern of the new powers the National Parents Association had and also informed all teachers that KNUT had abandoned the medical scheme cover by AON minet as there was a misunderstanding and hence was no longer viable.
