GES Releases SHS Placement; How To Do Self Placement
The Ghana Education Service (GES) has released school placement for 2022 BECE students into Senior High Schools and Technical, Vocational, Education and Training (TVET) schools across the country. Here is how to do self placement if you weren’t placed in any school.
At a press conference in Accra on Wednesday, February 15, the GES said out of the 547,329 registered pupils, 538,399 candidates qualified to be placed in the various SHSs across the country.
372,780 candidates, representing 69.24% have also automatically been placed into various schools.
The GES further stated that 165,601 candidates who could not be matched with their school choices will have to do self-placement.
The Director General of the Ghana Education Service, Dr. Eric Nkansah also told the media that first-year students are expected to report to school on February 20 for their admission processes to begin.
“So, from February 20, 2023, students can report to the schools for registration and possible orientation for academic work to commence on February 27, 2023”.
He urged the public not to “fall prey to deceitful persons that may approach them to pay money for placement in SHSs.”
