Government Of Ghana Plans To Build Special Schools For Gifted And Talented Children

According to the Minister of Education, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum, the government is considering building a school for gifted and talented children.

He added that it was also vital to focus on gifted and talented students to enable them to operate effectively within the educational system.

Ghana boasts of several gifted and talented children who gained social media notoriety for their exceptional inventions.

Ghana’s Minister of Education, Dr Adutwum, said they were working with the cabinet and other stakeholders to ensure that gifted and talented children will become part of the education ecosystem in the country.

He made this revelation at the Academic City University College when he was invited to speak on “STEM Education for Socio-Economic Transformation”.

The minister emphasized that it was incorrect for an educational system to believe that children were just capable of memorizing information and that this needed to change.
