Asking students to write exams to enter law school unconstitutional – Supreme Court

24th Jun 2017 | Source: Graphic Online

In the unanimous decision, the court presided over by Justice Jones Dotse also directed the GLC to develop a quota system to admit students

The Supreme Court has declared as unconstitutional the requirement by the General Legal Council (GLC) that persons seeking to enter the Ghana School of Law (GSL) needed to write and pass an entrance examination as well as go through a selection interview.

The court has therefore given the council six months to review LI 1296 which regulates admissions to the school, reports Graphic Online’s Seth J. Bokpe who was in court on Thursday afternoon.
