The Ghana Education Service (GES) Director General, Dr. Eric Nkansah, has urged everyone involved in pre-tertiary education to defend ideals that will contribute to the development of an educational system fit for 21st century.
According to him, in order for Ghanaian youth to effectively compete and land respectable jobs in the twenty-first century, educators needed to arm themselves with the knowledge and skills necessary to influence the competencies that students need to learn.
Dr Nkansah was addressing a cross- section of stakeholders in education at a forum in Koforidua as part of his two-day working visit to the Eastern region.
