Ghana’s Education Minister, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum, has made a passionate plea for Ghanaians to re-elect the New Patriotic Party (NPP) for four more years to complete its transformational agenda for the educational sector.
Speaking at the African Skill Summit, Adutwum emphasized the need for continuity in innovative TVET programs, citing Germany’s successful model as a benchmark.
He highlighted the importance of combining STEM Education with hands-on training and announced plans to introduce technical courses in prominent schools.
Adutwum aims to dispel the notion that technical education is inferior and promote TVET programs through effective marketing.
He noted that the current T-VET system, which is often perceived as being for those who are not academically inclined, needs to be overhauled.
To achieve this, Mr Yaw Adutwum announced plans to introduce technical courses in prominent schools like Opoku Ware and Wesley Girls, dispelling the notion that technical education is inferior.
He also emphasized the need for effective marketing to promote T-VET programs and attract more students.
