The Ghana Education Service (GES) has removed Mr. Charles Akwasi Aidoo, the Assistant Headmaster (Academic) of KNUST Senior High School, from office following a viral video circulating on social media. The video allegedly captured him in a compromised position with a female student.
In a statement issued on Monday, September 29, 2025, and signed by the Head of Public Relations, Daniel Fenyi, the GES described the matter as “very serious” and emphasized its commitment to safeguarding the integrity of the teaching profession.
“Mr. Aidoo has already been removed from office and prohibited from going to the school while thorough investigations are being carried out,” the statement read.
GES assured the general public, stakeholders, parents, and students that due process will be followed and appropriate disciplinary action will be taken in line with the Service’s code of conduct.
“Management assures the general public, stakeholders, parents, and students that due process will be followed, and the appropriate disciplinary action will be taken in accordance with the code of conduct of the Ghana Education Service,” it added.
The statement also reiterated GES’s zero tolerance for acts that undermine the safety and dignity of students.
“The GES remains committed to upholding the highest standards of professionalism, discipline, and child protection in all our schools. We strongly condemn any acts that compromise the safety, dignity, and wellbeing of students,” Mr. Fenyi emphasized.
The Service further urged the public to remain calm as investigations continue, assuring that transparency and accountability will guide the process.
