The Executive Director of the Ark Foundation, Angela Juabena Aboagy is calling for the revision of some rules of the College of education, which she described as archaic. She made these comments Joy New Current Affairs Program, PM:express on Multi TV while speaking on the topic: “Gender Discrimination in our society”. According to her, “the college of education is like all other tertiary institutions and must be treated as such…There are rules but some rules are bad because; they go against higher rules such as the 1992 constitution of Ghana and must not be overlooked”, she said. Following the exemption of some pregnant female students from writing their exams because they were pregnant; the principal of St. Monica’s Training College said the College was constrained to punish the affected female students under “rules and regulations stipulated by the Teachers Education Division Manuel for the Teacher Trainees.” The College of education which was initially known as teacher training college migrated from a pre-tertiary to tertiary state. Consequentially, it has inherited so many rules that apply to people who are minors. Meanwhile over the years, things have changed and so has the college of education which is now a tertiary institution, but the rules and regulations however have not changed. According to article 27(3) of Ghana’s 1992 constitution, “women shall be guaranteed equal rights to training and promotion without any impediments from any person”. According to Mrs Dwamena Aboagye, it is for these reasons that female students in the tertiary institutions must be treated equally. She is of the view that the Ghana Education Service must do away with rules which do not favor the training of its members. It must set up rules that agree to the current state of tertiary institutions. She quoted copiously from article 22(1) of the 1992 constitution which states that: “special care should be accorded to mothers during a reasonable period and after child birth”. She said, the Ghana education service must put into consideration their female students. There should be facilities that will assist pregnant female students to have their babies whilst going through training just as students in other tertiary institutions. “Pregnancy is not a sin or a crime for which female students should be punished or stigmatized. It is not a disease and that is the main reason why no one can say, ‘We do not have facilities for you so go home’, she said. Meanwhile, Mrs. Angela warns that minors are not to use this as opportunity to get pregnant whilst in school.
