The Ghana Education Service (GES) has released the list of
successful candidates of the 2018 Basic Education Certificates Examination
(BECE) who had been placed onto the Computerized SHS Placements System.
In a statement issued by the Head of Public Relations of the
Ghana Education Service, Cassandra Twum Ampofo, about Sixty-seven thousand
three hundred and eighty two (67,382) students who
have qualified to senior high schools (SHS) could not be placed under the
computerised school selection placement system (CSSPS).
This the statement indicated was due the inability of the
grades of such candidates to match with any of their school choices.
According
to the GES, such victims have however been asked to do self-placement to get
themselves into schools with vacancies; but the schools selected on self-placement
cannot be changed.
The
statement further indicated that 423,134
out of 490,514 qualified candidates
have however been placed. Out of these numbers, One
hundred and thirty (130) students
have been placed for enrolment and admission to Tanyigbe Senior High
School for the 2018/19 Academic Year.
