Government has paid the first-term feeding grant to caterers under the Ghana School Feeding Programme (GSFP) in all the 16 regions.
This was done through the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection .
According to a statement issued by the Programme, the total number of cooking days for the first term of 2025/26 academic year was 74 at the rate of GH¢2 per child per every school going day.
”It is pertinent for caterers to note that the payment is according to the number of days they were able to feed beneficiary pupils during the term,” the statement issued by Director of Public Relations Siiba Alfa on Friday said.
It asked caterers who have issues with the disbursement to immediately report to their respective Regional Coordinators for prompt redress.
“We take this opportunity to commend government for the timely release of funds, and our cherished caterers for their patience and cooperation.
