Administrative divisions of Ghana
The administrative divisions of the Republic of Ghana consist of four geographic terrestrial plains; ten regions divided into six metropolitan assemblies; and 55 municipal assemblies subdivided into a total of 212 districts, each with its own district assembly. Various types of council then exist beyond districts, including 58 town or area councils; 108 zonal councils; and 626 area councils. Finally, there are sixteen-thousand unit committees.
Ghana things to see and do
They call Ghana “Africa for beginners”, which in many ways is quite the compliment. It’s a friendly and largely safe country, with a list of enticements as long as an Accra traffic jam: for a start, you’ll find sunshine, beaches, wildlife, national parks and a deeply colourful cultural heritage. The long tropical coastline is in some ways the most natural draw card for travellers, but you’re unlikely to come to Ghana for the sole purpose of lying on a beach. There’s too much going on for that.
Education in Ghana
Ghana has in the public sector 12,225 Primary Schools and 6,418 Junior High Schools. The number of public senior high schools stands at 526, 38 teacher training colleges, 23 public technical institutes and several private ones including Vocational Institutions and eight public universities in addition to 10 polytechnics serving a population of 25 million; this means that most Ghanaians have relatively easy access to good education.
