GES postpones reopening date of SHS 1 students
The Ghana Education Service has postponed the
reopening of first-year Senior High School
students to Thursday, March 18 through to Sunday,
March 21.

In a press release signed by the Deputy
Director-General, the Service said the action is
to give students who have had issues with
self-placement time to complete the process.

Also, others who have not completed their
school’s admission process have been encouraged
to use the extension to complete the process.

The Service added that the rescheduling will also
help parents have adequate time to prepare their
kids for school as well as give schools additional
time needed to prepare to welcome them.



“Management had decided that the reopening of
schools for first-year students should be
rescheduled for Thursday, March 18 through to
Sunday March 21, 2021.”

“The spread out period is to enable the schools
to structure the admission process in such a way
that not too many students get crowded at the
school at one particular point in time.”


Meanwhile, academic work will begin on Monday,
March 22, in all schools.

GES has also urged parents to ensure that their
children leave home with adequate nose masks to
protect themselves amid Covid-19, while management
of schools has also been tasked to ensure strict
adherence to Covid-19 protocols.
