GES Director Prof Amankwa exchanges document YEA Boss Mr Frimpong<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Ghana Education Service (GES) and the Youth
\nEmployment Agency (YEA) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the
\nrecruitment of 7,730 Ghanaian youth, to provide support services to 700 Senior
\nHigh Schools (SHSs) across the country.<\/p>\n

The recruitment of personnel between the ages of
\n18 and 35 years, which is to start by the end of the week, with advertisement
\nof vacancies, forms part of the agency\u2019s School Support Programme. The
\nprogramme is aimed at creating a supportive and an orderly environment for
\neducational activities.<\/p>\n

Ghanaian youth under the programme are to be
\ndeployed as security guards and kitchen assistants who would respectively provide
\nbasic security to students and staff on campuses and help cooks and pantry
\nstaff to provide basic nutritional needs of staff and students.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the MoU signing ceremony in Accra, on
\nMonday, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of YEA, Justin Kodua Frimpong,
\nindicated that the programme was initiated to augment the existing staff
\ncapacity of GES that had been relatively stretched with the introduction of the
\nfree SHS programme.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

\u201cAs there has been increase in enrolment in
\nvarious SHSs, there has also been the demand for teachers and supporting staff,\u201d
\nhe said.<\/p>\n

The Director General of the Ghana Education
\nService, Professor Kwasi Opoku-Amankwa, for his part explained that the GES with
\nthe inception of the free SHS programme had to recruit 1,500 non teaching staff
\nand 8,000 teachers. <\/p>\n

The start of the double track system, he said had
\nwarranted the need to augment supporting staff, thereby leading to the
\ncollaboration with YEA.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce we have the double track, the existing
\nnumber of staff may have to run shift to ensure that at least they have some rest.
\nBut then you will need the numbers to be able to do the rotation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He commended the agency for the initiative and also appealed to the general public and prospective applicants to desist from making excuses that would prevent them from being posted to areas where their services would be required.<\/p>\n
