Ghana Programmes Manager of Right To Play Ghana, George Ahiable, said play “enhances children’s academic and developmental learning outcomes.”“Play-based learning methodology is the present and future of quality primary education and many studies have pointed to this,” he said. A total of 150 teachers were celebrated for promoting play-based learning methodology in their classrooms. Mr Ahiable commended the Ghana Education Service (GES) for placing a premium on the use of games by teachers in class. But the mere acknowledgement of the methodology is not enough to guarantee quality primary education if it is not implemented.
