Director of Schools and Instructions Division at the Ghana Education Service, Prince Charles Agyemang-Duah, has announced a reduction in the number of subjects to be assessed during the 2024 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).
This decision, reached in collaboration with the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NACCA) and various stakeholders, aims to create a more focused and meaningful learning environment.
Breaking: BECE Candidate To Write 5 Subject Instead Of 9 As GES Make Changes
In an interview with Accra based MX24 at the sidelines of a seminar held in Accra, Agyemang-Duah highlighted the careful deliberation and expert advice that led to this pivotal decision.
He emphasized that the previous nine subjects were deemed excessive, with some subjects appearing redundant and repetitive. As a result, the subject “Our World Our People” has been eliminated from the curriculum.
Agyemang-Duah explained that upon closer examination, this subject exhibited significant overlap with social studies, making the learning experience appear burdensome and potentially punitive for students.
