He maintained the NDC had plans to progressively implement the free SHS. The plan he stated included the decision to construct 200 community day senior high schools.

He said a significant number of the schools were completed with others at various levels of completion.

The chief scribe said the existing challenges confronting the smooth implementation of the free SHS is the double-track system and the placement system as well as funding of the policy.
