Ghana School of Law rolls out counselling support after student death
The Ghana School of Law (GSL) has introduced a structured counselling programme for students following the death of a PLC Part I student at its Accra Main campus.
In a notice to students, management said the intervention is designed to provide emotional and psychological support, particularly for those in Accra Main Group C, who were most directly affected by the incident.
According to the school, the support will be delivered in two phases to ensure students receive both immediate and continued care.
The first phase will take the form of a virtual counselling session with a psychologist, scheduled for Tuesday, March 24, 2026, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Students are required to register in advance through an online link circulated by the school.
This will be followed by in-person group counselling sessions at the Accra Main campus for students who may require additional support after the initial engagement.
The physical sessions are planned for Sunday, March 29, 2026, and will run in two time blocks: Session 1 from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m., and Session 2 from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Registration for the in-person sessions will open after the virtual meeting, with students expected to select their preferred time slots.
Management encouraged students not to deal with grief in isolation, urging them to support one another and to make use of the counselling services being provided.
