An education advocacy group, Africa Education Watch, is demanding a review of disciplinary action taken against a 14-year-old student.
The student attends Bolgatanga Girls Senior High School. She was allegedly sexually abused by two security guards on the school premises.
Eduwatch believes the student should not face any disciplinary or educational consequences. This is because she is the victim of alleged sexual abuse.
The organization stated that the school's decision needs an immediate and independent review.
Details about the specific sanction imposed on the student were not immediately available.
The alleged abuse and the subsequent disciplinary action have raised concerns about student safety and support systems in schools.
Eduwatch is advocating for better protection for vulnerable students.
The Ministry of Education has been urged to look into the matter.
