The World Bank Country Director, Robert Taliercio, has reaffirmed the Bank's commitment to enhancing education in Ghana, emphasizing its role in alleviating poverty and equipping the youth with the necessary skills for the job market and national development.
Taliercio made this pledge during a site visit to selected Ghana Learning and Accountability Outcomes Project (GALOP) schools to assess the progress of the project's implementation.
GALOP, a $335.83 million initiative funded by the World Bank, is designed to improve the quality of education in low-performing basic schools while strengthening equity and accountability in Ghana's education sector.
As part of the project, teachers are supported with resources to develop teaching and learning materials to enhance classroom instruction.
