The Back-to-School Checklist Every Parent in Ghana Needs
School is reopening. Is your child’s school bag really ready?
The uniform may be hanging in the wardrobe. The shoes may be polished. The school bag may even be brand new.
But there is one thing parents should check before the first day of school: Does your child have all the books they need?
Every back-to-school season, parents across Ghana begin searching for Primary School textbooks, JHS textbooks, SHS textbooks, revision books, storybooks and other school supplies. Waiting until the last minute can make the process stressful.
This year, make preparation easier with a simple checklist.
1. Start With the School’s Book List
Before buying anything, get the official book list from your child’s school.
Check:
- Class level
- Subject
- Textbook title
- Author or publisher
- Recommended edition
- Required quantity
This prevents you from buying the wrong book or discovering later that an important textbook is missing.
2. Get the Essential Textbooks First
Textbooks should be at the top of your back-to-school shopping list.
Depending on your child’s level, you may need Primary, JHS or SHS textbooks covering subjects such as Mathematics, English Language, Science, Social Studies, Computing and other subjects.
For JHS and SHS students, consider getting relevant BECE and WASSCE revision materials as well.
3. Don’t Forget Reading Books
School isn’t only about textbooks.
A good storybook or novel can help children develop better vocabulary, comprehension, creativity and reading habits.
Consider adding age-appropriate children’s books, storybooks, novels and educational reading materials to your child’s school collection.
4. Prepare Before the Rush
One of the biggest back-to-school mistakes parents make is waiting until the final days.
When everyone starts shopping at the same time, finding specific textbooks can become more difficult.
The earlier you shop, the less you have to worry about.
