Ghana’s school heads will adhere to a new directive from the Ghana Education Service (GES) prohibiting excessive spending on graduation and school-leaving events. This assurance comes from Primus Baro, National Secretary of the Conference of Heads of Assisted Secondary Schools (CHASS). The GES issued the directive in an effort to curb what it deems as overly extravagant celebrations. School authorities nationwide are expected to fully implement the ban, prioritizing responsible use of funds. The move aims to alleviate financial pressure on parents and students associated with these ceremonies. CHASS’s commitment signals a nationwide effort to standardize and simplify end-of-year school events.
