In fact ghana's Education is among the world's best even though there is more room for improvement. Ghanaians are naturally strong academically in all fields, this is a worldwide known fact.

A sadly predictable denial of the findings, instead of immediate resignation from post.
If Ghana is just to begin addressing this shocking situation, if it is to begin to meet the desperate educational needs of her children, and her children's children, the Ministry must be purged of the indolent and stupid parasites whom the Minister typifies.

And the Minister cannot even spell the word 'complimentary' (paragraph 5 of the press statement).

Has anyone checked that she really is a 'Professor'? That she isn't a 419er?

You are quite right Teacher under Tree. "Complementary"(= which completes) is not the word the Honourable Minister wanted to use in her statement. "Complimentary" (= expressing praises) as you say is the word which should have been used in paragraph 5 of the press statement.
That said, I am surprised you are unaware that the Minister was a genuine University Professor
and the former Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cape Coast. She didn't type the text of the statement herself in her quality of a Minister, it is some press secretary somewhere in the ministry of Education who printed and sent the statement to the press at large. I guess you do not live in Ghana,Teacher under Tree,otherwise you wouldn't have opined the way you did about the minister in your posting.

But words put aside, this eminent former Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cape Coast is not reasoning here in her statement as an intelligent intellectual, she is just doing politics which is her work now, that is denying the truth, lying to the electorate and throwing dust into the eyes of Ghanaians as a true useless and corrupt Ghanaian politician.

It is so inexpressibly sad to see young Ghanaians' future permanently blighted by such incompetence, and those responsible lying, throwing dust in our eyes (as you eloquently put it), and even denying that the problem exists. All for their own petty purposes. Grotesque.
I guess the mere fact that she achieved a professorship is itself an indictment of our educational system.

Please, let us put Prof Opoku-Agyeman's statement in perspective.

She did not say that there is not a problem. What she did say was that our President has himself recognised that we need to raise standards in maths and science, so teachers in these subjects are being retrained with the help of renowned mathematical physicist, Prof Allotey, and Prof Anku Sitsofe.

In addition, books and equipment have been provided to schools, and science resource centres have been set up to support the training of teachers and teaching of maths and science.

She also pointed to the fact that other reports by reputable international organisations have actually praised Ghana's educational system and ongoing efforts to inmprove standards. She asked for people to wait for the full OECD report to be made public before commenting on our educational system.

I think hers was a measured response to all the reaction to the OECD survey report.

Please, Ghanaians , don't buy into notorious NDC elements deceptiions and lies they have perpetuated for long time. The elements in NDC are Notorious, Dubious and Corrupt(NDC). That is the name of NDC.

Their children are enjoying good education abroad where good people have worked hard to build. What has NDc done in Ghana. They have looted and stolen everything in Ghana for their personal gains. Boot NDC out of power. That is the message.

These notorious NDC party is destroying everything in Ghana including our education system that has helped the children of the poor, farmers, carpenters, petty traders, teachers and civil servants etc to attainhighest level of education in this country.

Ghanaians have not seen what this notorious NDC party is up to. And most of these miscreant NDC officials have their children studying abroad. That is a typical mentality of notorious NDC officials. That, let us destroy education system in Ghana and send our kids to study abroad so that they can control politics in Ghana.

Our education is completely destroyed. Don't listen to the surrogates John Mahama. They spinning to make it look better than any system. They are lying. If you don't vote these thieves out in 2016, your children have no future in this country. That is the message.

The minister made reference to three variable repors that are in the public domain. Instead of casting aspersions at her, why don't you consult these and educate yourself as to the veracity of her statement. So in total, there are four report. If three give positive reports and one a negative one, we may be doing right 75 per cent. On the other hand, note that the present report circulating in the media is only on Mathematics and Science. But these two are only a component of the total esucation in the country.

"Total education". Plus, if Mathematics and Science are not doing well. It might perhaps be partially attributed to the truncated Science programme in the early 2000. The problem did not start yesterday. It also good to do a self introspection as a country to see if we are investing our scarce resources in the right discipline in matter of education. Perhaps we are training more in the humanities than is needed, that is why the country has become a talking one and not a workimg. Instead of thinking to find solutions to our problems, we are always looking to the central government. Please, let us provide more resources to the sciences and spend less in the humanities, this way we will have many who are willing to work and the number of those in politics will reduce.

Our Administrators trained here and abroad have made just a little or no impact at all on the society.All what Ghanaian believes in it today is money,it doesn't matter where it comes from.We are really poor in Mathematics,especially in public.When you get a job,the employer does not pay you on hourly basis.The govt normally comes out every year to fix the minimum daily wages instead of fixing it on minimum hourly wages.The govt does that to avoid long mathematics and transparency.On the contrary,it affects productivity and development.Again,when you rent a room or an apartment,you are not charged by cost of a square meter.You only pay by the number of rooms which is totally wrong.We do all these things to avoid maths.The only maths we are more concerned with is when it comes to trading.As for Science,I am even not sure if we believe in it.Therefore,I am not surprised an inch.Thank you.

This woman talks a lot of crap. Is she jealous of the Asian countries or what. Instead of investing in books and science, you chose to invest in sanitation pads for girls, that is the level of you education thinking. People like you are in government, and you expect to do well in education ranking. Stop the bullshit and change your course. Ghana's education is as hopeless and weak as potassium, so stop the defence analogy and start thinking more positively.

One thing you must know is that, in MALAYSIA NO ONE WOULD APPOINT YOU AS EDUCATION MINISTER let alone shit ABLAKWA as deputy minister. With what you have done to the EDUCATION MINISTRY, i wonder how you had your Doctorate degree. May be you bought it or you opened your pussy for it. In short, you don't deserve to be where you are. There are more qualified Ghanaians to raise the bar of our educational system than you.
It's a bloody shame you and your bunch have destroyed our educational system within five years that we should be last in world rankings.

Town hall meeting is a way a leader interact with the people to listen to various ideas and tell their side of story on how they're doing, but our leaders hate to open up and can not take any criticism simply because they think they're "qualified and educated" and that's why they're chosen to head and therefore anything they're doing can not be wrong and therefore should be above criticism.
That mind set is the devil eating into us and unless we get rid of it and open up, we will not get any where.
When was the last time any president or sector minister ever called a town hall meeting to interact with the public to listen to us so we can also listen to them?

I know as you're with ndc and as custom demands in your party you'll always come out to defend everything which seems to reveal your inefficiency and non performance. If for the past five years Ghana has come top of the Waec results, you can't use this a basis of performance since your basis is less international and therefore less popular, unlike the O and A, which you and I went through. Also, you're talking about the first 3 top candidates, have thought about the failures as they are completely useless as far as numeracy and literacy is concerned. You don't care since none of your children in this group like your mentor and founder, Jerry who destroyed 'sikaman' educational system and sponsored his children universities in UK, someone who used to have yoko gari on credit.

When almost every SHS school child is failing and millions of produced graduates walk the street simply because they are not job marketable?

Ghana education which was strong in the 60s and 70s and early part of the 80s can not be said to be the same value we have today in the country as result of consistent change of educational policies and taking away the foundation of our education from the missionary schools.
Another attribute which is yet another serious issue is, the parent control. Ghana have a lot of unemployed parents whose income effects the home training as the school going child is made to sell along the road to go sell to support the scanty economic income of the parents and the worse is the uncontrolled dumsor which add up to the worsening educational situation in the country.

Thanks to Rawlings coming into Ghana's social politics everything under NDC is crumbling and as Ghanaians its about time to own up to our backwardness and social nose diving than to cover up thinking all is alright when it is not.
