The initiative will support more than 68,000 teachers in delivering lessons to over 1.4 million students, while promoting innovation in education without compromising Ghana’s ethical and cultural values.

The AI apps were co-created by the Ghana Education Service (GES), NaCCA, NTC, NaSIA, and CENDLOS, with technical input from Playlab AI and support from Transforming Teaching, Education and Learning (T-TEL) and the Mastercard Foundation.

According to the Ministry, the tools, built on Ghana’s curriculum materials—will help teachers plan lessons, conduct assessments, and access interactive resources, while giving students tailored learning support.

The statement added that the rollout will strengthen curriculum delivery, bridge teaching gaps, and provide teachers and learners with innovative tools for improved learning outcomes.

Speaking in an interview on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem, the Public Relations Officer of the GES, Daniel Fenyi, stressed that the reform is a deliberate step to equip students with modern skills for the 21st century.

“The new curriculum has been necessitated by the need to adjust, change, and subtract to meet the changing demands of the market. Five years ago, there was nothing like ChatGPT and artificial intelligence, but now we have all of that, so we must integrate them into our education system to prepare our students,” he explained.

He further highlighted the importance of 21st-century skills such as communication, problem-solving, and information technology literacy, which he said are now indispensable in the world of work.

“Some years back, teachers were just feeding students with knowledge. But today, students can debate, argue, discuss, and even bring external materials into their studies. With this curriculum, knowledge is co-created to build their confidence for the industry,” Mr. Fenyi added.

The new SHS curriculum, developed under the Ministry of Education’s Pre-Tertiary Curriculum Reform Programme, seeks to replace the decade-old framework.

It emphasises critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and digital literacy in line with global education standards.

Education experts have long argued that Ghana’s old syllabus focused heavily on rote learning and did not adequately prepare students for the evolving job market, especially in areas of science, technology, and innovation.

The curriculum reform therefore seeks to bridge this gap by making teaching and learning more interactive and industry-oriented.

Mr. Fenyi indicated that nationwide teacher training has been rolled out to ensure smooth implementation of the new curriculum beginning in the 2025/2026 academic year.

The new curriculum is designed to reinforce the knowledge and skills acquired during basic education while providing a diversified framework to cater to different aptitudes, abilities, interests, and skills.

It will also provide opportunities for further education and training and introduce students to a variety of relevant occupational skills necessary for national human resource development.
