There's nothing wrong with "Double-Track" system Mr Minister! Issues with less contact hours if is the problem can be addressed. Until we put up enough infrastructure to accommodate our children in school, this is the best option we have. If America did it with inspite or their wealth, definitely it cannot be bad as you claim.

Your government is proposing a 24 hours economy yet you have problem with schools running a double track as a result of infrastructural deficit. The hypocrisy in us is our number enemy.

Criticism is easy and cheap! Hate Akuffo Addo all you want; but the Free SHS policy is the noblest policy of all time in Ghana.
The budget for SHS is like a national children's cake. So far, it had benefitted the well off, leaving out children of the urban poor, cocoa farmers, fishermen, etc. The Free SHS came to cut the cake in smaller slices to enable it to benefit all children. Only the selfish, self entitled worthy and the stupid poor condemn it.
Does the policy require improvement? Yes indeed!
So minister, get to it. After all, but for Nkrumah's free education for the north, you would have been probably left to herd goats!

John Mahama's government is proving to be senseless, wacky, wasteful, stupid and lacking good judgement.

So apart from the setting up of useless committees to review the policies of the previous government, these crazy and crackhead appointees do not possess any ideas on their own to run the country?

Any challenges they face in any sector of the economy, these foolish and medieval-oriented NDC caecilian ministers cannot solve unless they push the perceived difficulty on the neck of others to think and solve on their behalf.

If governments are only about forming committees, then toddlers and kindergarten kids could even perform better than John Mahama and his nincompoop ministers/appointees.

We're in the era of setting up committees. Committee here, committee there ei. I think the minister must tell us that he is going to reduce admissions into shs therefore, to bring an end to double track system. Simple and short rather than setting a committee to draw a road map. We all know the road map which was taken over by double track in 2017 so it's a matter of 'sank)fa' which doesn't need a committee to fetch it.

As a country with much much development demands on scarce resources, we cannot continue using billions of dollars in loans for expanding education. I see the double track system as a brilliant idea and the future of educational expansion amist competing for scarce resources. Let us form a committee to correct the challenges associated with it so we can use the same school infrastructure for two sets of students. We can then realise our ambition of making secondary education accessible to all Ghanaians.

Commission, upon Commission s what came out of the port George Oduro education review Commission and summit? We are beginning to see that thus government is about talk without any structural changes from the Npp government policies. It beats my mind that they now defending continuous payments of teacher and nursing training allowances. What new policies are you bringing to improve things?

Past education ministers have structured our education system based on what they think will work for Ghana without any input from the any parliamentary oversight. How can we put a whole national agenda in the hands of one person? This has led to a ping pong in our educational system where every minister is experimenting what they think will work for us . What is the use of this double-track system of our education. Absolutely useless . The minister of education Hon Huruna Iddrisu must form an advisory board to study and formulate an educational system that will work for Ghana . Enough of the experiment.

Whatever was wrong with the double-track system of education in Ghana was better than leaving a proportion of youngsters without education. At least it gave them a foothold in their education.
But the very sad and heartbreaking thing about the present government is that those students who are the future teachers of the country cannot be fed properly on campus. All the colleges of education in Ghana now give one meal a day to students in the boarding school. I said one meal and NOT one square meal. Fir example kenkey and tomato stew with oil. What a disgrace!. And the minister has the guts to talk about double-track. This guy has a big mouth but no conscience. No MP or minister is talking about redressing this matter as soon as possible.
Ghana has faced serious problems in the past, but the ministry of education has never stooped so low as to neglect the health of would-be teachers. They were paid as well as given free food ( three square meals) a day, and high quality food.
At that time Ghana did not have gold reserves and foreign exchange reserves.
So what is wrong with Ghana?
It is being led by ignorance and arrogant bastards, who are only interested in power. They are empty shells.
Ghana can only prosper if we have patriotic leaders starting from those who teach our children. If we start to malnourish them what incentive are we giving them to study hard to come to teach pupils or students to the highest standard and quality of education?
This is not a prophecy. If we do not get it right at this level, the country has no future for politicians to spit around the lies again.
