Two prominent academics, Dr.

Frank Bannor of the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA) and Dr.

Eric Boachie Yiadom, Senior Lecturer at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA), have described Ghana's 2024 general election as a pivotal referendum on the Free Senior High School (Free SHS) policy.

The lecturers, both members of the advocacy group University Teachers for Free SHS Ghana, argue that the election's outcome will determine the fate of this transformative educational initiative.
