Education policy and reform expert Akwasi Addae-Boahene has called on Ghanaians to actively contribute to the success of the Free Senior High School (SHS) policy.
Speaking at the ‘Achimota Speaks’ event on Wednesday, March 19, 2025, Addae-Boahene emphasized the collective responsibility to enhance the policy’s effectiveness.
The Free SHS policy, initiated by the previous Akufo-Addo administration, has faced challenges such as accommodation and feeding issues.
Addae-Boahene highlighted the importance of unity in addressing these challenges, stating, “As citizens, we must unite in our commitments to contributing to its success.”
He further urged that discussions and critiques be aimed at perfecting the policy, reflecting a shared desire for its success.
“Irrespective of the position I would take in delivering this paper, I would expect that we would take it in the spirit of contributing to the perfection of the Free SHS policy. Because we all want it to succeed.”
The ‘Achimota Speaks’ event serves as a platform for stakeholders to discuss pertinent issues in Ghana’s education sector, fostering dialogue and collaboration among educators, policymakers, and the public.
