Abstract
Sessional Paper No. V of 1944 outlined certain schemes for the immediate expansion of staff required to develop the educational system of the Gold Coast. In addition to a major scheme for the award of scholarships for higher education and professional training, proposals for the increase in the output of teachers were formulated. These proposals provided for the establishment of a Government Teacher-Training College at Tamale, for the duplication of classes in the Tamale Government Senior School and for assistance to certain Mission training colleges and other institutions. Expenditure amounting to £122,125 was contemplated under these proposals and a grant to meet this expenditure was made under the Colonial Development and Welfare Act.
