The causes of dismissal are as follows, he was caught saying "I can't work with temporal/untrained teachers". so if that the reason, why is do the DEO and public service keep on employing these people coz they teach temporary things.
Secondly,according to the source whenever a teacher s/he is sent out for school business they are forced to sign a voucher of cash mounting $30/40 yet you will be given $15/20. If you happen to demand the remaining balance, conflicts starts and you will be warned that no recommendations for you next term. These issues makes working conditions unfavorable to the teachers.
