The Conference of Heads of Assisted Secondary Schools (CHASS) has urged the Ghana Education Service (GES) and the Ministry of Education to postpone the planned January 3, 2025, school reopening after the Christmas break.
CHASS cited unresolved financial constraints as the primary reason for their recommendation.
In previous letters dated August 12th, November 13th, and December 20th, 2024, CHASS leadership requested the government address outstanding payments for perishables, recurrent fees, and transportation costs related to food deliveries.
According to CHASS it intends to also inform parents and guardians through regional branches and school Parent-Teacher Associations (PTAs) about the potential delay in reopening.
In the letter, CHASS noted that the decision to recommend the delay in reopening school comes after its leadership’s repeated requests to the Ministry of Education and GES went unanswered.
