There is yet to be received any official communication from the GES on whether there has been a change in the reporting date of 10th February, 2025 for second-year students.

The GES is, however, not expected to alter the current academic calendar, given the reasons it gave for not doing so when CHASS called for postponement of reopening for 3rd-year students in January 2025.

In a related development, the GES has announced that the West African Secondary Schools Examination (WASSCE) for school candidates for the 2025 examination year will be administered from 4th August 2025 to 19th September 2025.
