The Executive Director of Child Rights International (CRI), Mr Bright Appiah, has commended President John Dramani Mahama for his unwavering commitment to Ghana's Free Senior High School (SHS) programme.
He described the President's stance as a crucial step in ensuring equal access to quality education for all Ghanaian children.
In a statement signed by Mr Appiah, CRI strongly opposed suggestions from some stakeholders that boarding students should start paying for their accommodation and feeding.
He cautioned that any such move would undermine the core objective of the Free SHS policy, which is to remove financial barriers to secondary education.
