The Ministry of Education (MoE), under the leadership of Hon. Haruna Iddrisu, in partnership with the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC), has absorbed Savannah College of Education into the public college system.
This milestone reflects the government’s unwavering commitment to expanding access to quality teacher education and fortifying the nation’s educational framework.
Following a comprehensive review and due diligence process, Savannah College of Education has satisfied all requirements necessary for its transition from a private institution to a fully recognized public College of Education. This transition ensures that the institution will now operate under the governance and funding framework of the public tertiary education system, allowing it to benefit from enhanced state resources and support.
The absorption of Savannah College of Education is expected to:
Expand access to teacher education, enabling more students across Ghana to pursue teaching careers.
Enhance the quality of training through state-funded infrastructure, professional development for faculty, and curriculum improvements.
Promote equity by providing resources to strengthen teacher education in under-served regions.
The Ministry of Education commends the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC), Traditional Authorities, and the Management of Savannah College of Education for their instrumental roles in facilitating this smooth transition. This development aligns with Ghana’s broader educational reform agenda, which focuses on developing a highly skilled and competent workforce of educators to drive national development.
“We call on students, faculty, and all stakeholders to fully embrace this transition and work together to establish Savannah College of Education as a center of excellence in teacher education,” Ministry of Education cals for collective effort to grow the college.
“This release is subject to the yet to be constituted Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) Governing Board.”
