Abstract: | In 1984 the Ministry of Education in Ghana introduced a career ladder policy for teachers. While reformers believe that this
has improved the condition of the teaching profession, the net gains of the policy remain deceptive. There has even been a
reduction in some of the benefits that teachers used to enjoy in the single salary scheme in the past. After critically assessing
the major aspects of the policy, along with the voices of Ghanaian teachers, this study argues that the career ladder policy
for teachers in Ghana is another prototypical case of a failed experiment in terms of both improving the lives of teachers
and maintaining their professional rights. |
