The Ghana Education Service (GES) has released an official update concerning the alleged 2025 financial clearance for recruitment of teaching and non-teaching staff.
Recently, a letter widely circulated online claimed that GES had received clearance to recruit 50,000 fresh teachers and non-teaching staff into the service. The document, dated 19th August 2025, bore the GES logo and was supposedly signed by Dr. Angela Frimpomaa Nkansah, Director of Human Resource at GES. It further outlined application procedures and listed requirements for validation.
However, GES has confirmed that the notice is fake. The circular, although formatted to look official, does not represent any legitimate communication from the Ghana Education Service. A bold red “FAKE” stamp has since been placed on the document to alert the public.
GES cautions job seekers about fake recruitment notices
GES is warning all prospective applicants, including graduates awaiting postings, teachers, and non-teaching job seekers, to completely disregard this fraudulent announcement. The Service emphasized that authentic GES recruitment updates, postings, and financial clearance notices will only be announced through its official website and verified social media handles.
According to GES, it does not operate through unauthorized or manual recruitment channels. Applicants are therefore encouraged to stay alert and avoid scammers who may try to exploit their desperation for employment.
Where to check genuine GES recruitment updates
For official announcements on:
- GES recruitment 2025
- Teaching and non-teaching staff postings

Conclusion
The Ghana Education Service has made it clear that the viral recruitment notice is false and should be ignored. Job seekers are advised to rely only on verified GES communication platforms for accurate updates on teacher recruitment, postings, and financial clearance in 2025.
This official clarification reinforces GES’s commitment to transparency and to safeguarding applicants from recruitment fraud.
