The Policy
The Free Senior High School (Free SHS) education policy was a government initiative introduced in the 2017 September by the Nana Akufo-Addo Government.
The policy's core themes of access, equity and equality.
Policy Objectives
Government has given full effect to SDG 4.1 with the implementation of a Free SHS Policy. The programme, is anchored in the below pillars;
Impact
Introduction of the Free SHS Policy has Minimized the Cost Barriers to Secondary Education and Gives Full Effect to SDG4 – The increased enrolment numbers at the secondary level of education is evidence of uninhibited access to obtain secondary education and training
The Role of GETFund
Provide financial support to supplement the successful implementation of the policy.
This meant rising to the challenge of responding to and supporting government's drive to expand school infrastructure particularly in the senior high schools following the introduction of the Double Track system in 2018, which was in itself an innovate response to the Free SHS policy that saw access to SHS education improve tremendously.
