This study investigated the English-only language-in-education policy in three primary schools in Ghana: University Primary, OLA Presby Primary and Apewusika Primary School in the Cape Coast Metropolitan in the Central Region of Ghana. The study employed Coulmas’s (2005) eight-step language planning model as a conceptual framework for the study. Nine teachers were randomly selected from Basic One to Basic Three to respond to the selection and supply items. The selected items were analysed and put into frequencies and percentages, while the supply items were coded into recurrent themes. Findings from data indicate that most teachers preferred using the local language (Fante) as a medium of instruction in the lower primary. The study also revealed that code missing is a significant feature in teacher-learner interaction. It was also observed that teachers encountered little problems when using Fante as a medium of instruction. Finally, most teachers express a lukewarm attitude towards using English as a medium of instruction in the lower primary school.
