A Sustainable Open Schooling System for Ghana

Abstract

This document is the main output of a short-term consultancy to devise strategies and structures for delivering a sustainable open schooling programme in Ghana. The assignment involved a desktop review of published literature, government Report and internal documents; a ten-day visit to Accra in November 2010 to meet with key stakeholders; and considerable additional reflection to produce this report. The mission was funded by the Commonwealth of Learning on behalf of the Centre for National Distance Learning and Open Schooling (CENDLOS), a newly-established unit in the Ministry of Education
