The Ministry of Education is responsible for all policies on education, including apprenticeships and wider skills acquisition in Ghana. We work to provide education that ensure opportunity is equal for all, no matter what their background or family circumstances.
The Ministry of Education (MoE) was established in 1957 to formulate and coordinate education policies, set standards, and monitor and evaluate their implementation. The MoE works to ensure that quality education is accessible for all Ghanaians, in order to support human capital and national development.
The MoE is committed to ensuring that all Ghanaians are prepared to succeed in the world of work. It achieves this through the development of an educational system that focuses on promoting problem solving and creativity and building critical skills through academic, technical and vocational programs
