    The Acting Director for Curriculum at the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA), Reginald Quartey, has explained that the introduction of a new curriculum for senior high school (SHS) students arises from a need to enhance global competencies and meet international standards.

    In a recent interview with Joy News, he pointed out some gaps in the previous curriculum, which relied on an objective-based model that, according to him, no longer met educational demands.

    “It is a new curriculum that is standards-based, different from the objective-based one we were running some time back, as this being a sequel to the JHS one.

    “We had to find out what the issues were with stakeholders that we had engaged. It came out that the kind of learners coming out from our school were not meeting global standards again when they come out, they are not able to fit into schools like the universities.”

    He added “They were not doing well and when they came out of school, they needed to be retrained and again there are a lot of global competencies that our students need to develop.”

    The Ministry of Education has rolled out the new curriculum for second-cycle schools through its agencies, the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA) and the Ghana Education Service (GES).

    The curriculum covers senior high schools (SHSs), senior high technical schools (SHTSs) and Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) schools across the country.

    Starting in November 2024, the curriculum is expected to change the phase of education in the country by developing critical thinking, creativity and problem-solving abilities among students.

    For the past two years, NaCCA, the agency responsible for developing curricula in the country, has been collaborating with the GES to develop and roll out the new curriculum.
