As the educational landscape continues to adapt to the ever-changing circumstances, the Ghana Education Service (GES) has made a crucial announcement that affects both students and school administrators.
In a recent letter addressed to all Regional Directors of Education, Mr. Prince C. Agyemang-Duah, Acting Director of the Schools and Instruction Division, has communicated a rescheduling of the reopening date for Form One students in Senior High and Senior High Technical Schools.
Revised Reopening Date
The primary update concerns the reopening date for Form One students, which has been shifted from the previously scheduled date of September 18th, 2023, to a new date: September 25th, 2023. This adjustment is crucial for both parents/guardians and students, as it necessitates a shift in preparation timelines.
Communication to Schools
Regional Directors of Education have been entrusted with the task of disseminating this information to all Heads of Senior High and Senior High Technical Schools. This ensures that educational institutions are well-prepared to welcome the incoming Form One students on the revised date. Parents and guardians are encouraged to stay informed about this change and ensure their children are ready for the new academic year.
SHS 2 and SHS 3 Students
While Form One students await their rescheduled reopening, it’s important to note that SHS 2 students, along with their counterparts in SHS 3, have already resumed classes. Their academic journey resumed on August 14, 2023, following a break that began on June 2, 2023.
The academic calendar for these students is set to conclude on November 30, 2023, marking the end of their academic year.
As stakeholders in the education system, it is crucial for parents, guardians, and students to stay informed about these changes and make the necessary adjustments to their schedules.
