The National Council for Curriculum & Assessment (NaCCA), has set records straight on history of Ghana for Basic Schools-Learners’ Book Four.
This was contained in a press release dated 23rd May,2023 signed by Prof.Edward Appiah,Director –General of NaCCA heading “HISTORY OF GHANA FOR BASIC SCHOOLS-LEARNERS’ BOOK FOUR”.
The full statement reads “The attention of the National Council for Curriculum & Assessment (NaCCA) has been drawn to a publication making rounds in the media about the content of a textbook-History of Ghana for Basic Schools-Learners’ four” published by Excellence Publications.
This said publication from Excellence Series was taking through the standard protocols established under the approval process of the Council and therefore comes to as a surprise. This is because, the content as published by the media is not the true reflection of what NaCCA approved.
The Council wishes to state that the material in question is not an approved content material by NaCCA.The Council urge the general public to continue to bring to its’ notice,any suspicious material in the market that may be deemed to have been emanated from NaCCA.
NaCCA will not hesitate to sanction publishers who publish materials without recourse to the established protocols of the Council.
We urge the public not to hesitate to contact our outfit for information on the right content and materials for use in our pre-tertiary schools.
Meanwhile, management of the Council has requested the publishers of the textbook to withdraw the materials from the market until such time that issues with respect to the publication of the book have been resolved.
