The presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr John Dramani Mahama, says the next government will invest in senior high school education to eliminate the double-track system.
Addressing the queenmother and elders of Berekum on Monday, September 28, 2020, Mr. Mahama said his government will abolish the double track system by completing the remainder of the 200 Community Day Senior High Schools as well as invest in new schools and additional infrastructure such as dormitories, libraries, and classrooms in existing schools.
Mr. Mahama said he will ensure that all students attend school at the same time and get adequate contact hours from their teachers.
He added that private schools in deprived communities will also be enrolled for the Free SHS programme to give students in those communities equal opportunity.
Mr. Mahama said the next NDC government will also establish a campus of the University of Energy and Natural Resources in Berekum, as originally planned, and legalise and regulate okada to make it safe and guarantee operators decent and sustainable income.
