Gov’t to build new Community Day SHSs in Nima, Ayawaso and Kasoa – Education Minister

The government is planning to establish more Community Day Senior High Schools (SHSs) in selected peri-urban communities as part of efforts to expand access to secondary education.

The minister said President John Dramani Mahama has consistently advocated for the expansion of Community Day Senior High Schools to bring quality secondary education closer to communities.

In June 2026, the World Bank approved IDA financing of US$300 million for the STARR-J Project, which will expand access to quality secondary education and equip more young people with the basic knowledge and skills necessary to transition to higher education and enter the labour market.
