The National Peace Council (NPC) held a stakeholder workshop to finalise the draft of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on Religious Tolerance and Freedom in Private and Government Assisted Mission Schools in Ghana.
The MOU seeks to promote a safe and healthy learning environment for learners, teaching, and non – teaching staff in accordance with the law and school regulations.
Speaking at the workshop on Tuesday, 23rd January, 2024 at the Ange Hill View Hotel, the Chairman of NPC, Dr. Ernest Adu-Gyamfi said the Council was inundated with concerns about religious tolerance in schools, as some religious militants emerging across the country were escalating matters in a specific direction, and that clarity was needed on issues.
He said that, it is part of our mandate to resolve conflicts, so as part of the process, we have to complete and come out with a document that would finalize this for us to move on as a country. He added that, it is important for the public and the students to understand the objectives of such schools, know what they can or cannot do while there and accommodate all those who are not like them but are also there to study. We have coexisted as a people, and we should not allow these religious militants to come into the educational system.
Once finalized, the draft would be made public and handed to the Ministry of Education (MoE) as an agreement signed by all Mission schools.
The workshop was attended by representatives from Conference of Managers of Educational Units (COMEU), Conference of Heads of Assisted Secondary Schools (CHASS), Office of the National Chief Imam, Christian Council of Ghana amongst others.
