Government Clears School Feeding Caterers’ Arrears For 2024/2025 Academic Year

The 31-day arrears owed to caterers under the Ghana School Feeding Programme (GSFP) for the First Term of the 2024–2025 academic year have been settled by the government through the Ministry of Gender, Children, and Social Protection (MoGCSP).
The government’s prompt transfer of cash to settle the outstanding arrears owed to the caterers was acknowledged by the School Feeding Program Secretariat.
Hajia Fati Forgor, the National Coordinator of the School Feeding Program, thanked donor partners in a statement signed on Wednesday, April 9, for their ongoing assistance and cooperation with the government in order to maintain the program.
The School Feeding Secretariat, under the supervision of the MoGCSP, has commenced a restructuring of the Programme to fulfill the Government’s commitment to decentralize its operations, improve the quality of food served and ensure consistency in the payment of caterers.
