MoE Introduces “Curriculum Microsite” for SHS Teachers and Students on the New Curriculum
Discover how the MoE Curriculum Microsite at curriculumresources.edu.gh is transforming SHS education in Ghana, empowering teachers and students with free, high-quality resources tailored to the new Senior High School (SHS), Senior High Technical School (SHTS), and STEM Curriculum for better learning outcomes.
The Ministry of Education (MoE) in Ghana has launched an innovative digital platform — the Curriculum Microsite — positioned as a game-changer for Senior High School (SHS) education.
Hosted at curriculumresources.edu.gh, this microsite is a comprehensive online resource hub designed specifically to support teachers and students engaged with the new SHS, Senior High Technical School (SHTS), and STEM Curriculum.
A New Era of Teaching & Learning Support
The MoE Curriculum Microsite represents a bold step in the Ministry’s strategy to implement curriculum reforms across Ghana’s secondary education system.
The platform provides a central repository of teaching and learning materials accessible to all SHS teachers and learners free of charge. This includes:
Teacher manuals and professional development resources
Learner materials by year group (Year 1, Year 2, Year 3)
Supplementary and general resources like
videos, audios, and interactive tools
Assessment tools and reference content tailored for effective curriculum delivery.
Whether a teacher planning weekly lessons or an SHS student preparing for classwork, the Curriculum Microsite simplifies access to essential curriculum resources.
Empowering Teachers for the Future
What sets this microsite apart is its focus on empowering educators. Teachers can find ready-to-use materials such as Professional Learning Community (PLC) handbooks, detailed subject guides, and weekly learning plans that align with the new curriculum’s learner-centred approach.
By consolidating a wide variety of instructional materials in one place, the platform reduces the time teachers spend searching for quality content and allows them to focus more on effective delivery.
Furthermore, complementary digital literacy training, offered through approved professional development portals equips teachers with the skills to integrate information and communication technology (ICT) into lesson delivery, enhancing classroom engagement.
Enhanced Learning Experience for SHS Students
Students now have unprecedented online access to structured learning materials by year and subject. The Curriculum Microsite supports self-directed study and classroom preparation, including multimedia materials that make learning more interactive and relatable.
This approach not only motivates learners but also improves comprehension of core concepts across subjects.
Teachers and students can easily visit curriculumresources.edu.gh and select their appropriate category — teacher or learner — to begin exploring and downloading the resources they need.
