If it were up to me, the bulk of education sector funding would go to basic education because that is where it all begins. The state needs to invest more in public basic education,\u201d Dr. Apaak stated.<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He also addressed the challenges facing rural basic education, advocating for incentives to attract and retain teachers in underserved communities.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5647\" src=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/free-shs-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"959\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/free-shs-min.jpg 959w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/free-shs-min-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/free-shs-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/free-shs-min-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 959px) 100vw, 959px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you agree to take up a posting in an underserved rural community, the state should provide you with accommodation, and you should receive your salary plus an additional 20%.
