General News of Sunday, 12 April 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comDeputy Minister of Education, Dr Clement Apaak, has reaffirmed his commitment to integrating the Buli language into Ghana’s basic school curriculum through a structured national process. Dr Apaak noted that Ghana’s national curriculum framework already provides room for mother-tongue instruction, particularly at the early stages of education, making the initiative both timely and feasible. He explained that the process would require a careful progression through curriculum review, approval, and the development of teaching materials. Dr Apaak emphasised that early-grade education presents the strongest case for introducing the language, citing research on the benefits of mother-tongue learning. He called on stakeholders, including traditional leaders and educators, to actively support the development of the unified orthography and contribute to language materials.
