The Ghana National Association of Private Schools (GNAPS) has expressed worry about pronouncements on a purported Free Senior High School (SHS) Bill which is intended to be laid before Parliament.
The proposed Free Senior High School (SHS) bill aims to codify the Free SHS policy into law and ensure its implementation by all successive governments.
GNAPS in a statement signed by its President Prof. Damasus Tuurosing, “advised Government to hasten slowly on this bill, and give sufficient time for stakeholder consultations.”
According to GNAPS, it is worried because characteristic of how important education decisions are handled in this country, private schools, which account for 49% of educational establishments and 33% of pre-tertiary enrolments in Ghana, have been side-lined in deliberations on the Bill.
