</div>Introduction<o:p></o:p>The Complainant petitioned this Commission
against what he perceived to be victimization in his first year of the internal
promotional examination in Accra Training<o:p></o:p>College.<o:p></o:p>The Complainant's Case<o:p></o:p>The Complainant stated that whilst he had
passed in all his external subjects, he had failed 3 internal examination
papers. This he stated, resulted in his being withdrawn from the Respondent
Institution.<o:p></o:p>He
asserted that he had petitioned the Director and the Institute of Education,
University of Cape Coast. He had however not elicited a reply from there.<o:p></o:p>He therefore wanted this Commission to
order a re-marking of all the papers he had failed.<o:p></o:p>The Respondent's Case<o:p></o:p>The
Respondent evinced shock at the complaint and stated that the Complainant had
asserted the wrong reasons for his withdrawal from the school.<o:p></o:p>The Respondent stated further that the
assessment showed that the Complainant had performed far below expectation. The
scores in all papers taken were communicated to the Institute of Education of
the University Of Cape Coast who on being satisfied after vetting, released the
results.<o:p></o:p>The
results were as follows:<o:p></o:p><ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
