A former Deputy Director-General of the Ghana Education Service (GES), Dr Kwabena Bempah Tandoh, has dismissed claims by Minister for Education, Haruna Iddrisu, that the Free Senior High School (Free SHS) Double-Track system undermined quality, insisting the policy was one of Ghana's most effective educational innovations.
The Education Minister, Haruna Iddrisu, said the double-track system implemented under the Free SHS policy has hurt the quality and outcomes of education across Senior High Schools (SHSs) in Ghana.
Speaking at a media briefing on Sunday, August 24, Mr Iddrisu described the system, which was introduced to manage overcrowding in SHSs, as a temporary solution that has compromised effective teaching and learning.
