The Ghana Education Service (GES) has announced plans to reduce the number of Senior High Schools operating under the double track system by at least 25% by 2025.

The double track system was introduced in 2021 as a strategy to sustain the Free SHS policy under the Akufo-Addo–Bawumia administration. Fresh students were divided into Gold and Green batches, each assigned specific periods to attend school while the other batch either continued or caught up with academic activities.

Public Relations Officer at the Ghana Education Service, Daniel Fenyi, in an interview on Happy98.9FM’s Happy Morning Show, revealed that the double track system has had a strenuous effect on many Senior High Schools — particularly boarding schools.

“Part of the reasons the double track system has been introduced and is playing a necessary role is because the children oversubscribe to the boarding schools. You can go to one particular school and you realize that all the students have interest in that particular school, so all of them subscribe to that school and by the time you will realize, the boarding facilities are not able to accommodate them,” he revealed.

Fenyi encouraged candidates to broaden their school selection beyond boarding schools by considering private and day schools as well.

“We feel that out of the 7 schools, the student should pick one day school out of the school choices. We will encourage them to choose these day schools. In fact, we are making arrangements to make sure that we eradicate the double track system in Senior High Schools by at least 25% within 2025,” he stated.
