“The investment made in STEM and the embrace by students is impressive. I am excited at the opportunity to foster a culture of innovation and drive socio-economic transformation through enhanced education and innovation.

“I’m encouraging my kids to try their hands at STEM. Who knows? One of them may find a hidden engineering talent therein. In the coming weeks, Education Minister Dr Adutwum and I will engage with faculty, education policy shapers, and industry as we explore other dimensions of STEM on the roadshow by visiting other institutions.”

Earlier this year, Education Minister Dr Yaw Osei Aduwtum who is also a lawmaker for Bosomtwe announced the full operationalisation of seven STEM schools.

They were the Awaso STEM School in the Western Region, Abomosu STEM School in the Eastern Region, Bosomtwe Girls STEM School and Bosomtwe STEM School, both in the Ashanti Region, while the Koase Sec/Tech (already existing school) is located in the Ahafo Region, the Accra High School (Engineering only) in the Greater Accra Region and the Kpesemkpe STEM School (newly constructed) in the North East Region.

The seven have been included in the Computerised Schools Selection and Placement (CSSPS) for the 2023 academic year.
