Techiman (Brong Ahafo Region) 6 Oct. 1998 Plans are far advanced to expand the national teachers’ award scheme to cover administrative staff and other officers of the Ghana Education Service (GES).
Currently, only classroom teachers at the basic and second-cycle schools are eligible for awards under the scheme.
