The Ghana Education Service (GES) has directed the Headmaster of Dzodze-Penyi Senior High School,
Mr. Joshua Vidzro, to step aside from his duties with immediate effect.
The directive, issued on Saturday, December 6, 2025, follows allegations of the Headmaster’s involvement in sexual misconduct with some female students at the school.
According to the GES, the interdiction is necessary to ensure the integrity of the investigative process and prevent any perceived interference.
Mr. Vidzro has been instructed to formally hand over all official duties, responsibilities, records, and any property belonging to Dzodze-Penyi SHS that are under his custody to the Municipal Director of Education for Ketu North.
He is expected to vacate the school premises on Monday, December 8, 2025, after completing the handover.
Despite stepping aside, Mr. Vidzro must remain available to assist the authorities with the investigation and is prohibited from any direct or indirect contact with the female students involved or any potential witnesses.
The GES emphasised, “For the avoidance of doubt, this directive does not constitute a determination or presumption of guilt on your part, but is an administrative measure issued in furtherance of due process and institutional accountability.”
