Mother Tongue Now Mandatory in Basic Schools
The Minister of Education, Haruna Iddrisu, has directed the Ghana Education Service (GES) to make the use of Ghanaian local languages compulsory for teaching in all basic schools.
This move aims to
improve understanding and learning outcomes at the foundational level, as many children struggle to grasp lessons taught in English at an early age.
According to the Minister, learning in their
mother tongue will help build a stronger educational foundation.
The directive was announced during the launch of the Free Tertiary Education for Persons with Disability initiative, introduced by President John Dramani Mahama.
The Minister has instructed the Director General of the GES to strictly enforce the directive in all basic schools.
