Plan International Ghana, a non-governmental organisation (NGO), has trained 150 basic school teachers in the Volta and Oti Regions in Ho on the new standardised curriculum in order to prepare the teachers adequately to deliver on their mandate.
The beneficiary teachers were drawn from 25 basic schools from South Tongu, Afadzato South District, North Tongu, and Hohoe Municipality all in the Volta Region, and the Guan District in the Oti Region.
Speaking at the end of the three-day workshop, the Plan International Ghana Programme Co-ordinator, Mr Alfred Dzikunu, said Plan International Ghana education programme aimed at equipping teachers on the new curriculum to enable them to understand the changing trends in education, which would enable them to teach pupils effectively.
Mr Dzikunu stressed on the need for teachers to ensure gender-friendly practices in teaching their pupils and create the needed atmosphere for children to learn based on the new curriculum developed to bring favourable teaching outcomes.
