Prominent educationist, Dr. Daniel Osabutey, has called on the Minister of Education and the government to review the existing school categorization system and adopt a school profiling approach instead.
Speaking in an interview with Kwadwo Sefah- Danquah on the Happy Morning Show, Dr. Osabutey argued that school profiling would offer a more comprehensive understanding of each school’s strengths, weaknesses, and areas of specialization.
He explained that such an approach would enable students and parents to make informed decisions about schools that align with their interests and academic goals.
“By creating a school profile, we can highlight a school’s academic strengths, teaching styles, extracurricular and sporting activities, as well as its infrastructure,” Dr. Osabutey said.
He added that adopting school profiling would empower students and parents to make more informed educational choices while encouraging schools to improve and distinguish themselves in specific areas of excellence.
