All Is Set Now; Latest Update From GES On The 2023 School Placement

The Ghana Education Service has given an update on its preparations towards the release of the 2023 senior high school placement for 2022 BECE graduates.

According to GES, all is set for the release of the school placement. Parents and prospective SHS 1 students who may not be able to visit any of GES’ solution or help centers may choose to give them a call(contact to be made available soon).

Ghana education Service has assured the general public that this years school placement will be smooth and easier for students. All staff have been trained to assist persons who may find difficulties.

Without the placements, students can not be posted to their various senior high schools. It is also a point of anxiety since several candidates are expecting particular schools, depending on the grades which they have already checked.

Why 2023 School Placement Is Delaying? When It Will Be Released?

Here are some emerging reasons why the 2023 SHS placement is delaying.

1. Date in which BECE results were released.

2022 BECE results were released in late January, 2023. The Ghana Education Service does the school placement using mainly, the aggregates of the students. Since the results came few weeks ago, Ghana Education Service will need ample time for the placement to be released.

2. A lot more students are going to SHS this year

This is good news as more and more students are benefiting from the free senior high school policy. This year, a significant more people who completed JHS will be going to SHS, especially because it is free. For this reason, school placement will eventually take more time to make sure that each student is properly placed in senior high school.
GES will have to consider schools’ infrastructures before the placement is done, and this takes time.

WHEN WILL THE SCHOOL PLACEMENT BE RELEASED?

The Ministry of Education has announced that 2023 school placement for 2022 BECE graduates will be released before the close of February, 2023. This means students should expect to be placed in various Senior High Schools of TVET institutions by the close of February.

This was said by the Public Relations Officer of the Ministry, Kwasi Kwarteng, during a conversation Monday.

According to him, the Ministry is working effectively and is looking forward to releasing the placements by the end of February.

“The Ministry of Education is working very hard to make sure that we release the placement very soon. Hopefully, within the coming weeks, the placements should be ready.”

Adding to that, he stated that “the date has not been agreed upon yet, so I can’t be emphatic, but it’s surely going to be this February.”

For this reason, BECE candidates are to note the following important information:
