2025 school placement portal designed for BECE placements

The Ministry of Education has redesigned the school placement portal ahead of the 2025 BECE results and placements release. The new portal looks more professional and aesthetically beautiful and is also user-friendly compared to the previous one. The Red, Yellow and Green of the Ghana Flag have been creatively used to design the home page of the portal, with Green demoniating the colours.

The Ministry of Education (MoE) move to redesign the Computerised School Selection and Placement System (CSSPS) used by students to check their second-cycle school (SHS/SHTS/TVET) placement after writing the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) is a step in the right direction.

The site, for the first time in 8 years, is still active and accessible ahead of the release of BECE results and school placements for 2025, compared to the previous years when the site went offline a few weeks after school placements had been closed.

What are the features of the new 2025 School placement portal?

No. 1: Loading page

Users are greeted with a green background with the inscription “CSSPS 2025” in a shade of gold glowing at the centre of the page until the page loads. Below is what you see while the initial page is loading.

No. 2: Helpline

The new school placement portal has a helpline section on the top left of the site. While the helpline is in red and on a rounded-edged black background, it is very visible. The phone line for calling the school placement has not yet been entered and all you see now is the symbol # however, the email available for reaching the placement portal administrators, “help@cssps.gov.gh”, has been updated. The Helpline section is shown below.

No. 3: CSSPS Logo

The next visible feature is the CSSPS Logo located on the left end at the top and just below the Helpline. The logo is a combination of the Ghana Coat of Arms, CSSPS and Computerised School Selection And Placement System. The image is shared below.

No. 4: The New Menu section

The portal comes with an easy-to-identify menu. The menus are in Black font colour on a four-round, shed-rectangle curve, which is made super identifiable by the black line edges. The menu section contains the following menus: |Home| FAQs| Check Placement| Support Centre|

This feature makes navigating the site super easy and user-friendly.

No. 5: The Yellow Check Placement Button

Apart from the Check placement button in the main menu section above, the portal also has a very visible yellow menu named “Check Placement” on the extreme top right on the home page. This makes it easy for users to see and click the school placement button. When you click it, the colour changes from Yellow to Red. This is shown below.

No. 6: Welcome to CSSPS

This is the most visible section apart from the above menus. The Welcome to CSSPS is boldly written in white. Behind the write-up are three Senior High School students in their beautiful green uniforms with yellow stripes that add beauty to the home page. On the page the efficiency vision of the portal “Smart, Fair & Transparent SHS/TVET Placement” is written in white to give parents, candidates and the general public assurance that the new 2025 School Placement portal will not only deliver a quality and reliable school placement system devoid of the annual challenges but also one that Smart, Fair & Transparent.

No. 7: Trusted and Transparent Processes Message On The 2025 school placement portal

There is a curved-edge rectangle with blended dashes on the edges; the inscriptions to let parents and students know that the portal is built to be Trusted and Transparent is displaed in white with a dark background, which provides good contrast for easy visibility and readability. It is positioned in the centre of the page to make it easy to catch the attention of visitors.

The messages read as follows: Trusted by Parents – Parents across the country rely on CSSPS for accurate and fair school placements and Transparent Processes – Our placement system follows clear criteria to ensure fairness for all.

No. 7: The footer of the site

The footer of the site includes all the information provided at the bottom of the home page. On this page one can find the purpose and function of the portal: “CSSPS is a computerised platform designed to match graduating junior high school students with senior high schools based on their academic performance, programme preferences, and available vacancies.”

It also has the social media handles, phone number and more about the CSSPS.

No. 8: Beautiful cursor

The cursor on the page has two shades of green that follow the moving of the cursor. The colour selection and images used, as well as the dramatic cursor movement each time you move the cursor, add extra beauty to the new school placement portal.

No.9: New 2025 school placement portal

When a visitor clicks on any of the three (3) Check Placement buttons, it takes the visitor to a beautiful placement checking page with the url https://www.cssps.gov.gh/hub/login

On the placement checker page, the beautiful background of students in green shows up but it comes with the login interface, which looks super clean and well designed. The aesthetic beauty of the page makes it attractive. It has two sections to be filled by candidates to check their results.

The sections to be filled are:

(A) The candidate’s index number

(B) The special access code which will be used for free. This could be the candidate’s date of birth or the school’s BECE Code. The Ministry of Education is expected to disclose the code to be used to check the result. However, the code for checking the 2025 School placement is expected to be free.

How to check 2025 school placement on the new portal

To check the school placement, visit the portal at https://www.cssps.gov.gh/hub/login
On the portal, enter your 10-digit BECE index number followed by the last 2 digits of the year of examination. For example, 100000000025 for the year 2025.

Is the 2025 School Placement Portal Loading Fast?

To test how fast and well optimized the site is, we looked carefully at the data from Google site speed at https://pagespeed.web.dev/

On both Desktop and Mobile, the site is optimised for SEO thus 92 out of 100 for both. The site design follows best practices and scored 100% for both Desktop and Mobile checks however, the site has issues with performance, thus how fast it will load for users. It has a mid-range score of 73 for Desktop and 59 for Mobile. Both are not the best.

Desktop Score of 73 for instance, is acceptable But Not Exceptional.

The Mobile Score of 59 is a critical warning sign. Given that Google now operates on a mobile-first indexing model, your mobile site’s performance has a direct and significant impact on your overall search engine ranking. Such scores for Mobile and Desktop will lead to:

Poor User Experience: For the majority of internet users accessing your site on a smartphone, the experience is likely subpar. This can manifest as slow loading times, unresponsive buttons, and shifting layouts, leading to high bounce rates.

Negative SEO Impact: Google primarily uses the mobile version of your site to rank it in search results. A score of 59-73 will likely hinder the site’s ability to rank well, as it signals a poor user experience to the search engine.

Lower Conversion Rates: Mobile users are notoriously impatient. A slow mobile site is a direct barrier to conversions, whether that means making a purchase, filling out a form, or signing up for a newsletter.

We hope this article on the 2025 school placement portal has been very useful to you. Share with readers to keep everyone updated within your circles.
