According to the Director General, Schools were supposed to be opened on 11th January, 2022 but due to the newly introduced exam which was written on 17th December 2021last year thus the National Standardized Test for the class 4 Pupils when both JHS and Primary students and teachers were task to wait, that one week on was Compensated as promised.
The reason for the delay in communicating this to the general public is that, the management is also planning the academic calendar of those in the Senior High Schools ( both the reopening date of the freshers and that of the continuing students).
“To ensure that we get it right this time around, and avoid some of the inconveniences that occurred during the 2021 academic year in relation to the calendar structure, a Ministerial Committee on Schools Calendar was formed by the Minister of Education, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum to ensure proper planning to come out with a reliable structure,” he added.
“A call from the Committee this morning indicates that everything is done. The white paper has been given to the Minister for a final check before it can be issued to the general public”, he said.
Fortunately for us the white paper was released today for both basic schools and Senior High Schools that is SHS.
