A major update has just been confirmed regarding the 2026 Ghana Education Service (GES) recruitment—and it is something every applicant must pay close attention to.
As anticipation builds across the country, new and credible information available to GESHub.org reveals that GES will not be using the old recruitment portal. Instead, a brand-new application portal link will be announced and released for this year’s graduate recruitment exercise.
GES Confirms New Portal Link for 2026 Recruitment
Contrary to what many applicants may expect, the Ghana Education Service has discontinued the use of its previous recruitment portal, including the widely known gespromotions.gov.gh platform.
This means:
- The old portal used in 2024 and earlier is no longer valid
- Any links directing you to previous portals should be ignored completely
- A new and official application portal link will be announced soon
This update is critical, especially as fake links and misinformation begin circulating online.
Where Will the New Portal Link Be Announced?
GES has made it clear that the new 2026 recruitment portal link will only be shared through three official channels:
- Official GES Facebook Page
- Official GES WhatsApp Channel
- Daniel Fenyi’s Official Page
Applicants are strongly advised to rely only on these verified platforms. Any link shared outside these channels should be treated as fake or unofficial.
When Will the Portal Be Opened?
The recruitment exercise officially begins:
- Opening Date: April 10, 2026
- Deadline: July 1, 2026
Although the portal is expected to open today, applicants must wait for the official release of the new link before attempting to apply.
Why This Update Matters
This shift to a new portal means:
- You cannot reuse old links or accounts
- You must start fresh on the new system
- Only applications submitted through the new portal will be accepted
Failing to follow this directive could lead to automatic disqualification.
