2021 School Placement: Introduce Aggregate 25 Cut-Off Point Now

And Let The Best Students Be Supported. “He who climbs a good tree is the one we support.” Ghanaian Proverb.

The 2021 School Placement can be the starting point for the reintroduction of aggregate 25 as the Cut-Off Point to help the government cut down on its education expenditure. All education-related scholarships are awarded to brilliant students or those who have proven that given the chance and support they can do well. These are the kind of students that the country must invest its scarce resources on.

In an attempt to review the policy, the following may be considered.

n a related development, the 2021 School Placement for BECE graduates has been delayed for nearly another week and the question we are asking is “Are we delaying the release to achieve quality?” If yes, then the wait is worth it. Students and parents have become overly anxious and impatient because the placement has been delayed.

For BECE students who are looking forward to entering SHS, the delayed 2021 School Placement is giving them sleepless nights. The Ghana Education Service announcement that placement was going to be released from 14th March was welcome news, however, it has been a no-show for now.

Reading comments left by students, parents, and other stakeholders on various social media platforms regarding the delayed 2021 School Placement release show that the public is not happy with how the GES has remained uncertain with itself and its inability to keep to its own words.

Some have indicated that the delay is because the government does not have money to fund the Free SHS. Others hold the view that the mass failure may be a contributing factor to the unnecessary delay of the placement results.

Save the nation, and during the 2021 School Placement introduce Aggregate 25 Cut-Off Point.
