Gov’t to Review Free SHS to Improve Quality – Haruna Iddrisu - Metro TV Online

The government plans to review the Free Senior High School (SHS) policy to enhance its quality, according to Haruna Iddrisu, the Minority Leader in Parliament. He emphasized that while the initiative has increased access to education, it is crucial to address issues related to quality and infrastructure in schools. The review aims to ensure that students receive a comprehensive education that meets their needs.

Iddrisu highlighted concerns regarding inadequate facilities and resources in many SHS institutions, which can hinder effective learning. He called for a collaborative effort between the government and stakeholders in the education sector to identify challenges and implement necessary improvements. This approach is essential for maintaining educational standards and ensuring that all students benefit from the program.

Furthermore, Iddrisu urged the government not only to focus on expanding access but also on enhancing educational outcomes. By prioritizing quality alongside accessibility, Ghana can better prepare its youth for future challenges and opportunities in an increasingly competitive global landscape.
