Stop Issuing Unapproved Prospectus To Form One Students – GES Warns Schools
The Ghana Education Service (GES) has warned heads in various senior high schools in the country to desist from issuing unapproved prospectus and selling items on the prospectus to Form One students who report to their schools for admission.
According to the GES, some items being sold by the schools are meant to be distributed freely to new students.
A statement signed by the Acting Director for the Schools and Instructions Division, Prince Charles Agyemang-Duah, said GES would soon commence investigations into the issues.
“It has come to the attention of the Management of the Ghana Education Service that some Heads of Second Cycle Schools are issuing unapproved prospectus and also selling some of the items on the prospectus to Form One students who report to their schools for admission. Some Heads are also allegedly selling free items that are supplied by the government to students.
“Investigations will soon commence into the issues to ensure that the right things are done in our schools,” parts of the GES statement said.
He continued: “Heads of Second Cycle Schools are, therefore, cautioned to stick to the approved harmonized prospectus for students. Any Head of School caught demanding any items(s) aside from the approved ones will be severely sanctioned.”
