IS OUR CURRENT EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM A MAJOR CONTRIBUTOR TO GRADUATE UNEMPLOYMENT ?

MINISTER FOR EDUCATION,MAD. BETTY MOULD IDDDRISU

As we expect a lot from the year 2012 .I am tempted to take a critical  look  at the Ghanaian  educational system to ascertain the fact as to if it is helping graduate capable of  capable of working or just  producing a bunch of '' pen pushers''.I was charged to write this blog due to the dynamic nature of our educational system thus the ability of politicians who i call ''politrixsters'' to change  our system to  and fro to suit their whims and caprices.                                                                                                                                                                        
our current educational system is too liberal that  is grammer centered contretratring too much on how to teach student  to speak good english  better than the QUEEN rather then  focusing on   vocational and techenical   training which is a pre - condition for acquiring job in our part of the world.One will argue this point to the gutter by talking of the introducing of Basic Design and Technology to solve this menace. But i must  say with  regret that it is too ''bookish'' that it is only theoritical to allow student learn and pass their exams not giving them the skills needed                                                                                                                                             Another teething problem that has prevented the ghanaian educational system from producing graduate is the kind of problem surrounding the system itself.A system,  slapped with inadequate teaching staff ,inadquate classroom, wrong sudject combinination and inadequate teaching facilities can't produce graduate fit for the job market                                                                                                                                                  All this problems and the like  hinder's the abil;ity of an educational system that look nice on paper to  produce people fit for the job market.Till we take a critical look at our educational system graduate unemployment will not be archived from the history of GHANA.                                                                        HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MEMBERS OF WRITERS AND DEBATERS   CLUB AND MY COLLEAGUES AT KETA SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL NEWS AGENCY(CURRENT AFFAIRS) AND LIVINGSTONE ATORKEY AT ST PAULS SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL(St PAULS REPORTER)
