The National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA) has issued a directive to heads of pre-tertiary schools in Ghana, instructing them to cease using assessment materials that have not received approval from the Council. This measure was taken in response to ongoing use of assessment items prepared by unapproved entities, according to a statement released on August 8.
NaCCA emphasized its role as the official authority for approving evaluation materials for pre-tertiary education in the country. Schools are prohibited from administering externally developed assessment materials without first submitting them to NaCCA for vetting and approval, per the Council's statement. The directive aims to ensure that all assessment materials align with the approved curriculum and meet required standards.
NaCCA threatened regulatory sanctions for schools found procuring or facilitating the use of unapproved materials. The Council urged school authorities to verify that all examination and assessment materials used in their institutions have been approved.
