The winners of the Safe School Logo Design competition have been revealed by the Ghana Education Service (GES).
According to the GES, four individuals were named winners for the various categories of public pre-tertiary education in Ghana out of the more than 8000 pupils who entered the competition.

Egbenya Hannah, a student from the Volta School for the Deaf in Hohoe, in the Volta Region, won the special schools group.
The National Safest School Awards Program and the Safe School Logo would be officially unveiled together with the winners’ logos at the event, according to the GES.
It further stated that plans will be made for the four competition winners, along with a chaperone, to attend the program.
As a reaction to the increasing frequency of violence in schools, the Ghana Education Service introduced the Safe Schools Programme in 2018.
The safe school’s initiative aims to eradicate all forms of violence from the nation’s schools, including bullying, sexual harassment, and physical punishment.
The GES wants to encourage school staff to uphold the principles of safe schools in order to strengthen and advance a culture of respect for human rights and dignity.
