Ministerial Advisory Board of Education inaugurated
Ghana Education News | Ministerial Advisory Board of Education inaugurated to champion the strategic thinking and direction of Education in Ghana
Dr Yaw Osei Adutuwm has launched a 14-member ministerial advisory group to advise the Ministry on policy development and provide suggestions to operationalize the country’s reform goal in the educational sector.
He said they were chosen because of their diverse experiences and abilities to help bring about the necessary changes for the country’s growth.
“President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo believes that quality education is what will transform the country’s socio-economic development and this can be materialized with your expertise to drive that positive change”, he said.
This is because past administrations had tried but failed, and because other countries had taken a courageous choice to become where they are now.
“I will not blame the management of universities whose fresh students cannot read and write, but will be surprised if the situation persists after graduation,” he said.
The Minister urged the Board to live a legacy at the end of their tenure and be remembered that they “came, saw challenges but were empowered and conquered problems for the benefit of all and sundry”. He said President Akufo-Addo’s first term achievement in the educational space was remarkable in areas of free Senior High School policy, investment in infrastructure, among others, and stated that it was imperative to build on that foundation for more growth.
So, in order to do this, Dr. Adutwum stated the country’s education required to produce critical thinkers who could address challenges.
This, he added, is why the country needs six years of secondary school to adequately prepare kids for postsecondary study.
It was his intention to collaborate with them and solicit their advice on how best to improve education in the country.
