Ministry of Education Reintroduces Art, Craft, and Needlework into Basic School Curriculum


By Stanley Kwabla Arku

The Ministry of Education has announced the reintroduction of Art, Craft, and Needlework into the curriculum for foundational learners across the country, starting from the next academic year.

The Education Minister, Hon. Haruna Iddrisu, disclosed the policy initiative during an engagement with Home Economics teachers in the Eastern Region. The move, according to the Minister, is part of broader curriculum reforms aimed at improving foundational learning and nurturing creative skills among young learners.

“We believe that a holistic education goes beyond core academic subjects,” Hon. Iddrisu said. “By reintroducing Art, Craft, and Needlework, we are providing our youngest learners with the tools to develop their creative skills, critical thinking, and a deeper appreciation for our cultural heritage.”

The Minister stressed that the policy reflects the government’s commitment to fostering innovation and practical skill development from an early stage in the education system.

Under the new reforms, the curriculum will continue to emphasize literacy and numeracy but will now incorporate creative and hands-on components to ensure students receive a more balanced and comprehensive education.

The Ministry says it will collaborate with teachers, school administrators, and education stakeholders to ensure a smooth rollout of the policy across all public schools nationwide.
