New awards

She said the ministry would introduce new awards for the National Best School and Most Improved School in the country.

Prof. Opoku-Agyeman explained that the awards would be presented to the selected schools based on their efficiency and their commitment to provide the quality education needed in the country, stressing that “The schools will be awarded based on their environment, level of maintenance, students’ relations, and commitment of teachers”. 

She said the awards would encourage schools in the country to set-up good standards of teaching and put in place measures to preserve their infrastructures.

She, therefore, commended the sponsors for their support and urged them to continue to do so in the interest of national development.{facebookpopup}
