Education stakeholders have been urged to adopt the new school curricu­lum designed to enhance critical thinking and an objective-based learning syllabus, which is pertinent to national development.

Mr Francis Yao Agbemadi, Volta Regional Director of Education, who made the call at the local launch of the 60th anniversary cel­ebration of Anfoega Senior High School (ANFOESEC) over the weekend at Anfoega in the North Dayi District, said the new curricu­lum would start with the first years as school re-opens. "The changing trend of devel­opment across the world called for regular review of educational cur­riculum to ensure that the type of education provided in the country would stand the test of time and meet the development needs of the present and future generations," he said.

Mr Agbemadi stressed that there was a strong desire among countries in Africa to review their educational curriculum to be­come abreast of the dynamics of education tailored towards current and future development agenda of countries.

Additionally, he said South Afri­ca tried to review her educational curricular but failed, saying Ghana could not afford to fail, since other Africa countries were waiting to learn from her.
