Reopening for SHS 1 students postponed to March 18


The Ghana Education Service, in a statement signed by the Deputy Director-General, has postponed the reopening of first-year Senior High School students to Thursday, March 18 through to Sunday, March 21.

The Service explained that the action is to give students who have had issues with self-placement time to complete the process.

Also, students who are yet to complete the admission process in their respective schools have been advised to use the extension to complete it.

The Service continued that the rescheduling will also enable parents have enough time to prepare their wards for school and also give schools additional time needed to prepare in welcoming the students.

“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.”

"Academic work will commence fully on Monday 22nd March 2021.” the Service added.

GES has also urged parents to ensure that their wards leave home with some nose masks for self-protection against the deadly virus (COVID-19), while management of schools are tasked to ensure strict compliance to all COVID-19 protocols.
