In an exciting development for education in Ghana, the Ghanaian government has announced a significant upgrade for Mankraso Senior High School, following the school’s commendable performance in the recent National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ). This initiative underscores a broader commitment by authorities to enhance educational standards and promote academic competitiveness across the nation.
Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu made the announcement during a media briefing in Accra on November 19. He emphasized that the decision to elevate Mankraso SHS reflects the government’s dedication to nurturing high-performing schools, thereby improving the overall educational landscape in Ghana. It’s a fantastic opportunity for Mankraso, which has already distinguished itself in a national academic arena.
“We are on a mission to enhance the status of ten ‘Category B’ schools to ‘A’ status and ten ‘Category C’ schools to ‘B’ status,” Minister Iddrisu stated. “Mankraso Senior High School is now proudly included in this ambitious plan due to their outstanding performance in the NSMQ. It’s heartwarming to know that their hard work is recognized at a national level,” he added, reflecting the government’s intent to motivate students and teachers alike.
The planned upgrades are expected to bolster Mankraso SHS’s infrastructure, improve learning conditions, and equip the school to compete more vigorously in future academic contests. This move not only benefits the students at Mankraso but also serves as a model of what can be achieved when educational institutions are appropriately supported.
In addition to the upgrade for Mankraso SHS, Minister Iddrisu disclosed plans to complete 30 community-based senior high schools, known as e-blocks, as part of the 2026 budget allocation. The government has earmarked an impressive 0 million for these projects, reiterating its commitment to providing equitable access to quality education for all Ghanaian students.
These combined efforts signal a promising future for Ghana’s educational system, ensuring that more schools can deliver robust academic outcomes.
