The Vice Chancellor of the University of Education, Winneba, Professor Jophus Anamuah-Mensah, has observed that teachers hold the key to the success or failure of the new educational reform as implementers in the classroom. Professor Anamuah-Mensah said this in his Annual Report at the 12th congregation of the University at Winneba during which 2,600 students graduated and were awarded certificates ranging from diploma to masters degrees. He said programmes they pursued had prepared them adequately to contribute to nation building and humanity. Professor Anamuah-Mensah said the University believed that through "hard work and dedicated service you will shine as a beacon of light on top of the hill". "Your dedication and commitment to the cause of education is needed during this period when out educational system undergoing a reform". The Vice Chancellor urged the graduands not to refuse appointment in rural communities and other deprived areas since the challenges would mould them into "richer substance of worth". "Remember, you the Jubilee graduands are liberated to set others free; your brothers and sisters in the villages and far away from the cities." He appealed to all stakeholders, policy makers, parents, teachers, the private sector and religious groups to put their weight behind the reform to change the fortunes of the country. Source: GNA
