This is why these days you don\u2019t hear of basic schools undertaking activities like cultural and sports activities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hon Apaak argued claims that the records of President Akufo-Addo in the education sector are unsurpassed are blatant lies.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that for a government that is unable to provide the needed resources for the foundation of education in the country, which is the basic sector, it is highly presumptuous to assume it has done more for education than any other administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou owe capitation grant in excess of two years. Headmasters are compelled to borrow money to keep the system going and because of that many parents are disillusioned and disappointed in the public schools and are sending their wards to private schools.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can\u2019t tell me that this is an example of a President and a government that has prioritized education and for that matter, have a stellar record when it comes to education.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are calling on Mr. President to do the needful by instructing the Minister of Finance to pay the outstanding arrears and to make sure there is timely remittance of the Capitation Grant so that the public basic school system does not collapse,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>The capitation grant scheme was instituted in 2005 and the purpose is to ensure that basic school is accessed freely and to finance the administration and day-to-day needs of public basic schools.<\/p>\n<p>The grant is to cover the maintenance of schools, procure items like chalk attendance registers, fix broken doors and windows, and minor renovations in the public basic school system.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Apaak indicated that because the government has failed to do the needful many heads of basic schools have had to borrow monies to ensure the schools operate effectively.<\/p>\n<p>Some, he said, have had to take loans to the extent that many of them are now being harassed by their creditors, which is affecting teaching and learning in the basic school system<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Minority caucus in Parliament has called on President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to as a matter of urgency instruct the Minister of Finance Ken [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10845,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[2683],"class_list":["post-10844","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-parliamentary","tag-finance-minister-starving-basic-scholls-capitation-grant"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
