FRESH 2023 School Placement Update for BECE Graduates and Parents (November 23rd)
The Ghana Education Service (GES) has not yet released the 2023 school placement. The placement checkers were expected to be released for sale today; however, at the time of publishing this update, the GES and its partners were yet to make the checkers available.
The delay in the release of the school placement checkers is likely to delay the release of placements as well. There are several reasons why the school placement may not be released this week as expected. One of these is the over 22,000 scripts the West African Examination Council is scrutinising for suspected examination malpractice.
The script scrutinizing process initiated by WAEC on November 21st has to be completed. Students whose scripts are part of the 22,000 who are found not to have engaged in any act of malpractice will have to get their results released by WAEC. This will ensure they are given a fair chance of being placed in one of the schools they choose.
Releasing the results ahead of the completion of the scrutiny by WAEC may deny these students the chance to be placed into schools their raw scores would qualify them for.
The school placement as well as the results are not released on weekends; hence, the chance that the school placement will be released on Saturday is very slim and out of the question. A release on Friday 24th is possible, but only if the placement checkers are released very early on Friday 24th ahead of that. If these do not work, the school placement will not be released until next week, between November 24 and 30, 2024.
In a related development, nearly 300,000 students are expected to be placed automatically, while close to 200,000 are expected to use the self-placement module when the placement is done.
However, all candidates who obtain grade 9 in either mathematics or English are not likely to be placed in any of their school choices. Such candidates may have to re-sit the BECE or enrol in a private secondary school.
The Ghana Education Service has also released the National School Prospectus to help deal with the challenges of parents being overburdened with a long list of items to purchase for their wards’ boarding schools.
When will school placement be released for 2023 BECE graduates?
The 2023 School Placement is not likely to be released on Friday, November, but between 27th and 30th November 2023.

With all due respect, the suspense from the waiting for the placement is killing us. We are all eagerly waiting but it looks as if Waec is deliberately postponing the release date Or they might be reluctant.In my point of view I think they do not care about the fact that we are waiting.
However,I admire your writing skills in articles and your expressions are exquisite.
Please are parents need to confirm if we are either placed as boarders or day students,hence the need for money
Thank you.
Please do release it early
How many times will GES or WAEC change dates if they aren’t ready they should say it. Everyday they say all is set for the release but we don’t see it.
Education in Ghana really terrible and annoying
How possible can we go to school on 4th December if they keep postponing the release of the placement?
IT IS THE TRUTH YOU ARE SPEAKING MY DEAR FRIEND
Yes how can we go to school on the 4th of December if this is going on oh! WAEC
How possible can we report to school on the 4th when GES keeps on postponing the date to release the school placement
all the time ges and waec have been lying i don’t know what they want from us oo thank you all for visiting my channel
The suspense is too much.How can they expect parents to buy the list within one week.Please WAEC you can do better.
Please release the results on time so that you won’t pressurize our parents and we are hoping to get good schools
The time they are reporting to school is bad because some parents are paying 100 and something for only transportation for their children to go to school and after two weeks the children will call again and ask for transportation to come home is too much. Ooo is too bad
Pls so can’t our children go to the school in January, 2024?
