President has disclosed that over 5.7 million senior high school students have benefited from the Free Senior High School (Free SHS) programme since its launch in 2017.
He admitted that while challenges remain in implementing the Free SHS, the initiative has opened doors for many students who otherwise would not have had the opportunity to attend senior high school.
According to a report by adomonline.com, he made these remarks during his tour of the Western North Region on Tuesday, November 5, 2024.
Nana Akufo-Addo emphasised that the programme has significantly impacted education in Ghana by enabling more students to pursue higher education and has also given the youth an opportunity to enhance their future prospects through education.
