Education & Sports

 


















By 1874, Ghana was fully under the British Government as a colony known as Gold Coast. There was already several Mission Schools scattered around the colony at the time. The schools, however, ran on different educational programmed and curricula meaning there was a lack of uniformity. A child is expected to begin schooling at age 6 and the first 9 years of education are free and compulsory. The school environment is usually not conducive to learning. Classes are overcrowded, water and sanitation facilities are inadequate and trained teachers and schoolbooks are in short supply. Because of this lackness and over negligence had caused a huge trouble for Ghana children to receive better education. Some of the girls in Ghana doesn't get education because of shortage in classrooms and other schools' resources.
As with most African nations, football is the dominant sport in Ghana. Their national football team, called the Black Stars, has won the African Cup of Nations four times. Ghana's Black Satellites (under-20 team) is the only African team that has won the FIFA U-20 World Cup Championships. Their U-17 football team, known as the Black Starlets, have won the FIFA U-17 World Cup twice (1991 and 1995) and were runners up in 1993 as well as 1997. Also, this sport is popular in Ghana the Football (Soccer), by plating this sports and taking parts in different Championships Ghana has won many rewards and got a successful achievements.
