Ghana's education minister is about to drop a GH₵3 billion plan to kill the double-track SHS system for good, and the whole thing already has Cabinet approval. Haruna Iddrisu will break down the full infrastructure package during a Government Accountability Series appearance, delivering a mid-year education sector assessment. Communications minister Felix Kwakye Ofosu teased the announcement on Facebook beforehand.
The money targets the infrastructure gaps that have kept certain schools stuck, rotating students through alternating calendars. Kwakye Ofosu framed it as the government finally addressing a system everyone agrees shouldn't exist anymore. The broader presentation also covers ongoing reforms, facility expansion, and steps to improve teaching outcomes across the country.
And for anyone unfamiliar, the Accountability Series basically functions as a public transparency check where ministers lay out progress on major policies. This one's shaping up to be the education episode people actually want to watch.
