The Ghana Education Service (GES) has announced the release of outstanding funds for the procurement of perishable food items for senior high and technical schools across Ghana.
In a statement issued on April 20, 2026, the Service said the move is aimed at ensuring uninterrupted feeding in schools and supporting student welfare nationwide. The funds, according to GES, cover previously outstanding payments related to the supply of perishable food items.
Management of the Service indicated that processes have already been initiated to facilitate the efficient distribution of the funds to beneficiary schools. This is expected to enable school authorities to procure fresh food supplies promptly.
To ensure accountability, GES noted that monitoring systems have been put in place to guarantee that the funds are used strictly for their intended purpose. The Service emphasized that the measures are part of efforts to promote transparency and proper financial management within the education sector.
GES further reassured stakeholders of its continued commitment to improving educational outcomes and maintaining the welfare of students across the country.
The statement was signed by Daniel Fenyi, Head of Public Relations at GES.
