The Ghana School Feeding Programme (GSFP) has reaffirmed its commitment to providing one nutritious, hot meal daily to pupils in public basic schools as the 2025 academic year begins.

In a press release issued on January 13, 2025, the GSFP instructed all caterers to resume meal services across Ghana’s 16 regions following the reopening of schools on January 8. The statement also noted that 40 out of the 71 cooking days owed for the first term of the 2024/2025 academic year have been paid, with the remaining 31 days to be cleared shortly.

The GSFP called on various stakeholders, including community leaders, to support the caterers in fulfilling their duties without any interruptions.

Furthermore, the statement highlighted that the Ministry of Gender, Children, and Social Protection (MoGCSP), in collaboration with the GSFP, will soon implement a new caterer procurement process aimed at improving the programme’s efficiency and long-term sustainability. This initiative is expected to benefit over four million schoolchildren in underserved communities.

The National Coordinator also assured that significant strides have been made in settling arrears owed to caterers, with full payment for the entire third term of the 2023/2024 academic year already completed.
