"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, there is need to investigate whether the teachers had made prior arrangements with the head teacher that they would be late or to find out if teachers had a staff meeting prior to opening. In an institution of learning, a staff meeting is a prerequisite to smooth running of the school. The meeting sets the pace for everything else to fall in the right place before learning begins. It is during the school opening meeting that teachers express themselves in the event that they would be absent. Madam Temporary Speaker, head teachers as managers and leaders in the school need to set the right environment for colleagues to perform their duties confidently. Confidence in colleagues can be boosted or drained depending on how the head of the institution carries out his or her role. It is very clear that the relationship between the head teacher in the school and his colleagues is strained. A strained relationship between the head of the school and teachers is not productive in getting the desired learning outcomes. It is, therefore, necessary that either the head teacher or the teachers change the working environment for this specific school to have desired learning outcomes. Madam Temporary Speaker, I totally condemn this kind of strained relationship and urge the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to intervene in this matter so that learner ridicule and defiance upon their teachers is arrested in good time, and a conducive learning environment is restored."
