The Ministry for Education has begun the supply of food to the various Senior High Schools mummering over food shortage, giving the strongest assurance that Senior High Schools (SHS), affected by the shortage would all soon received supplies.
The assurance came after the Minister, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum held an emergency meeting with the leadership of the Conference of Heads of Assisted Secondary Schools (CHASS) over the weekend over food shortages reported in some SHS.
Last week, the Upper West Regional Chapter of CHASS wrote to the Ghana Education Service (GES) drawing attention that Schools in that area risked shutting down as a result of dearth in supplies.
Public Relations Officer of the Ministry of Education, Kwasi Kwarteng, in a brief message shared on his social media page indicated that the Ministry has moved to resolve the food challenges adding that all things being equal, supplies will reach the schools by Tuesday, July 12, 2022.
