A local NGO, YEFL-GHANA, has called for a shift from the use of dual desks to mono desks in basic schools across the country arguing that in the era of social distancing and the promotion of independent learning among pupils in basic schools, reviewing the dual desk system would help in combating the COVID-19 pandemic and promote outcomes in basic education.
Acting Director of YEFL-Ghana, Mr. Abdul Ganiyu Alhassan made the call at the second general meeting of the Northern Regional Coordinating Council (NRCC) in Tamale.
The day’s meeting was to brief stakeholders about the achievements of the NRCC, and according to him the use of mono desks at basic schools would provide a conducive, comfortable and functional classroom environment for pupils and student.
