I believe in common sense educational reform – Dr. Adutwum
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

At the 12th congregation of Jackson University College in Kumasi, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, Minister of Education, shared a compelling vision for the future of education in Ghana particularly focusing on basic and junior high school educational transformational policies.

The Bosomtwe Member of Parliament (MP) speech at the event highlighted the challenges, ambitions, and ongoing efforts to enhance learning in a rapidly changing world, urging stakeholders to embrace a progressive approach to education.

Speaking on the transformative power of education, Dr. Adutwum said that the current model must evolve to prepare students for 21st-century demands.

“Education today isn’t just about rote learning. It’s about fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and adaptability,” he explained. He acknowledged that students face unique challenges, yet he urged them to see education as the pathway to a promising future, saying, “A great education doesn’t just open doors; it builds the confidence needed to walk through them.”

The Minister illustrated his points with examples of cutting-edge initiatives being introduced in some Ghanaian schools.

He mentioned the use of affordable yet powerful tools like Raspberry Pi devices, enabling students to explore robotics, coding, and artificial intelligence. Such technologies, he explained, open up global opportunities for Ghanaian students.

“Imagine coding a robot or analyzing market trends while still in high school—that’s the kind of exposure we want for our youth,” he said.

Dr. Adutwum noted that initiatives like these help make technology accessible to students from all backgrounds, fostering a spirit of innovation and exploration.

However, he did not shy away from addressing the inequalities that hinder many students.

Dr. Adutwum expressed concern about the disparity in resources between urban and rural schools, pointing out that while some students have access to modern tools, others struggle with even basic materials.

“It’s essential that we bridge this gap,” he said passionately. He encouraged private and public partnerships to support underserved schools and ensure that students, regardless of location, have access to quality education.

Dr. Adutwum also emphasized the importance of community involvement in education, calling on parents, teachers, and local leaders to actively support students’ academic journeys.

“Education is a collective effort,” he remarked. “It’s not enough to rely solely on teachers or the government—families and communities play a critical role in shaping the values and motivation of our youth.”

The minister rounded off his speech with a call to action, urging the audience to envision a future where Ghana’s schools are centers of excellence, fully equipped to nurture the next generation of leaders. He left the congregation with a hopeful message: “Let’s continue building a world where every child can dream and achieve. Together, we can create a Ghana that’s not just a part of the global economy but leads in innovation, resilience, and growth.”

Dr. Adutwum’s address was met with applause, as students, educators, and parents alike left inspired by the shared commitment to advancing Ghana’s education system.

His vision called for a unified effort by all stakeholders in the Ghana education sector to overcome obstacles, ensure equitable access, and equip students to succeed in an ever-evolving world.
