Professor Mrs. Sally Essuman, the Head of Department at the Educational Administration Management of the University of Education, Winneba (UEW), urged teachers to see beyond the present and help train quality manpower for the nation. The ceremony, on the theme: “Quality Education; Expectations of a Motivated Teacher,” was sponsored by Mr Alex Afenyo-Markin, the Member of Parliament for Effutu. Prof. Essuman said quality education was multi-dimensional, complex and interrelated in many ways, which many equate to the provision of infrastructure, beautiful schools, provision of playgrounds, furniture and teaching and learning resources. Also, the 2014 UNESCO Global Monitoring Report recommends that governments should aim at retaining the best teachers by recognising and rewarding their achievements.
