The Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) is an important examination taken by students in Ghana at the end of their Junior High School (JHS) education. The results of the BECE are used by the Ghana Education Service (GES) to place students in their respective Senior High Schools (SHS). As such, the release of the BECE results is a very important event for students and their families in Ghana.
The GES has a very strict process when it comes to the placement of students in Senior High Schools. The GES considers many factors when placing students in schools including the student’s performance in the BECE, the school’s capacity, and the preferences of the student and their families.
Once the GES has completed the process of placing students in schools, the list of placements is made available to the public.
When will the School Placement for 2023 be released?
The GES typically releases the BECE school placement in mid-August every year. The placement is usually released a few days to weeks after the BECE results are released.
The BECE results for 2022 was released on 25th January 2023. The student’s BECE scores are now made available to the public. GES is now using the results to place students in their respective Senior High Schools. It typically takes a few weeks for the GES to process the data and place students in schools.
The 2023 Computerised School Placement will now be released on 16th February 2023 for students to check.
It is important to note that the BECE school placement is not always the same as the student’s first choice of school. The GES has the final say in which school a student is placed in.
Once the BECE school placement is released, students and their families are encouraged visit the School placement portal to see if the student has been placed in their desired school. If the student is not placed in their desired school, they can appeal the placement or apply to the school of their choice.
