Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s vision on education is one to build Ghana and leverage on technology, data and systems for inclusive education.
Under the Presidency of the visionary Dr. Bawumia God willing, in 2025, there will be an enhanced focus on TVET education.
Dr. Bawumia will support and facilitate the establishment of a National Open University Ghana in collaboration with the private sector and with a focus on technical, vocational skills and ICT.
In preparing the Ghanaian Child for the 4th industrial revolution workplace, the NPP Presidential Candidate, Dr Bawumia will enhance the repositioning of the education system towards STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths), Robotics, Artificial Intelligence and vocational skills to cope with demands of the 4th Industrial Revolution and Job creation.
Again, in the light of the new path in IT, the Presidency of Dr. Bawumia, Godwilling 2025, would also make coding and robotics standard in Senior High Schools. The foundation has been laid with the ongoing provision of tablets to SHS students.
Dr. Bawumia will also implement one student one laptop policy for Tertiary students through the provision of zero interest loan with a 70% discount on the cost of the laptops [payable over 4 years] for Tertiary students.
Dr. Bawumia’s government will also focus on special needs education. To start with, he will recruit 1,000 special education teachers and retrain teachers on how to work with special needs students.
Under Visionary Dr. Bawumia, we will train more speech and language therapists and occupational and behavioural therapists to take care of the vulnerable in social and special needs.
⇒ Bawumia’s government will expand infrastructure at medical schools as well as the Ghana School of Law to facilitate an increase in admissions for students for medical and legal studies.
⇒ Under the competent Dr. Bawumia, Free SHS would not be cancelled, contrary to the intentions of the NDC’s incompetent leader who has pledged to cancel it in the unlikely event he is elected).
