GES Trains Maths, Science And ICT Teachers

The Ghana Education Service (GES), with the support of the World Bank and the Ministry of Education, have organised a five-day workshop for mathematics, science, and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) teachers selected from some Senior High Schools in the country.

Opening the workshop, the Deputy Minister of Education (in charge of General Education) Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, said Government would continue to build the capacity of teachers to be effective in the performance of their duties.

“The Akufo-Addo-led NPP Government wants the best of education for children and citizens and would continue to build the capacity of teachers for you to be effective in the performance of your duties”, he said.

The Director for Secondary Education Division of the GES, Dr. Mrs. Angela Tena Mensah, in her welcome address, urged the participants to take active part in all activities and discussions at the workshop to help improve their impartation to the students in the subjects.

The workshop, which was organised under the Mathematics and Science for Sub-Saharan Africa (MS4SSA) programme of Secondary Education Improvement Project (SEIP), sought to train 125 mathematics and science teachers, with five teachers from each of some 25 low-performing schools as a pilot.

It hopes to provide skills in teaching mathematics, science and ICT, including materials science, robotics and energy conservation methods, using presentations, project-based learning modules and group activities.
