The Ministry of Education has ordered the use of a trimester system from the KG to the Junior High School level after further consultation on the new directive for a semester system.
Several stakeholders including the teacher unions had fought against the semester system introduced by the government.
The government had justified that the new semester system was the best since with will among other things resolve absenteeism.
However, the teacher unions including NAGRAT, CCT, and GNAT stood against it.
After consultation with these other stakeholders, Education Minister Yaw Osei Adutwum has asked for the new directive to be reversed back to the original calendar.
