NaSIA regulates the establishment of new schools and the quality of infrastructure and facilities in Pre-Tertiary Educational Institutions (PTEIs).
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which direct the development agenda for all countries, require the latter to build and upgrade educational facilities that are child, disability and gender-sensitive and provide safe, non-violent, inclusive, and effective learning environments for all.
School Proprietors seeking to establish a new school in Ghana are required to seek authorization from NaSIA.
Additional guidelines and processes for establishing a new school can be found in NaSIA’s Guidelines for the School Establishment and Inspection Policy
