The Ghana Education Service has instructed all teachers of Primary 2 across the country to cease the use of the textbook titled “History of Ghana Textbook for Primary 2” with immediate effect.
The directive comes in wake of concerns some education stakeholders have raised about the contents of the book.
According to the GES, the issues raised led to the Management of the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA) decision to “withdraw, with immediate effect, the approval of the textbook titled “History of Ghana Textbook for Primary 2 pending further investigations.
“You are therefore requested to disseminate this information to all primary schools. All Primary 2 teachers are to immediately cease using the above-mentioned textbook for history lessons,” the instruction issued to all Regional Directors of Education said.
“The said textbooks should be collected and kept in readiness for retrieval. Please treat this information as urgent,” Madam Patty E. Assan, the Director, Schools and Instructions Division, added in her notice dated May 13, 2022.
