This year’s BECE graduates to be admitted into various second-cycle schools as first-year students can change or move from their CSSPS-placed school to another after one academic year, an official of the Ghana Education Service has told Thisterm.com
His comment comes after we asked him if it is possible for Junior High School students who sat for the Basic Education Certificate Examination to change schools after they have been enrolled and admitted into their placed school.
Responding to the question, the Ghana Education Service staff said “It will not be possible to change school now, adding that a first-year student can only do that after one academic year, a movement he described as school transfer.
“So, for now, you can not change your placed school, you can only do that after an academic year, any movement from one school to another after school placement enrollment is considered a transfer,” the GES official told Thisterm.com.
The Ghana Education Service (GES) after releasing the school placement said out of the total number of 598,839 results received from the West African Examinations Council (WAEC), 585,797 candidates qualified to be placed.
“A total of 477,772 (81.56%) prospective students have automatically been placed in one of their choices. This is a significant improvement compared to last year’s, with over 100,000 more students placed.
However, 108,025 (18.44%) qualified candidates could not be matched with any of their choices. All such students are, therefore to do self-placement to select from available schools,” the management of the GES said in a press statement.
