Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh <\/strong><\/p>\n

The Minister of Education, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, has revealed
\nthat the government will employ 56,000 teachers by the end of this month.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy the close of the month, 56,000 teachers would have been employed
\nby the government. Last year at the advent of the double track, we employed
\n8,700 teachers to support teaching staff. We are also about employing over
\n1,500 school support staff to support the kitchen staff who seems to have been
\noverly burdened by the double track,\u201d Dr. Prempeh said.<\/p>\n

Addressing students of Nkawkaw Senior High School in the Kwahu West
\nMunicipal of the Eastern Region as part of President Akufo-Addo\u2019s three-day
\ntour of the region, the Education Minister said under the Free SHS policy,
\nstudents also get free uniforms, food and other stuff and this has not happened
\nin many years.<\/p>\n

He said the government was keen on resolving all problems associated
\nwith the Free SHS to make it even better. \u201cYour Excellency, you said at the
\nbeginning of your government that if there was any sector that Ghana should put
\nits investment in, it is the future of the country, and that future is
\nrepresented by the beneficiaries of the Free SHS,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Dr. Robert Forson, Headmaster of the Nkawkaw Senior High School, urged the government to continue to improve infrastructure in the various schools, including his outfit to enhance teaching and learning.<\/p>\n
