"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Ministry would be quite happy to ask those headteachers to exit. However, we need the support of the BoGs and the sponsors. Often, the biggest problem, when it comes to removing teachers who are not performing, is the sponsor and the BoGs. So, I would like to call upon Members of Parliament, being very key stakeholders in education in their respective constituencies, to always convene BoGs and sponsors and agree to write letters on headteachers whom they think should be removed on the basis of poor performance. Once such a request is made by BoGs and sponsors, it is not a big problem removing a headteacher. The biggest headache is dealing the with sponsors, BoGs and some people who think that teachers must remain because they are attached to them, or because they support them politically. So, it is very difficult for the Ministry to decide to remove a teacher without the recommendation of those who manage schools on behalf of the Ministry. The BoGs and the sponsors are a very key element in this process."
