Only Category C schools available for placement resolution – Northern Region parents say
Category C is the only option left; that is the reality facing parents and students at the Ghana Education Service (GES) Northern Regional Education Office in Tamale this week, as the resolution window for second-cycle school placements opens with a narrowed list of schools.
Northern Region parents are expressing frustration as Category C schools are the only option available for placement resolution at the Ghana Education Service's Northern Regional Education Office in Tamale. This is due to the narrowing of the second-cycle school placement list, with Category A and B schools no longer available for selection.
Anthony Lansa, Northern Regional Examinations Coordinator for GES, stated that students can only choose from Category C schools. This situation has left some parents disappointed as their children were supposed to be placed in Category A schools. Richard Baba Alhassan, a parent, mentioned that his child's school assignment was not among their eight choices, despite him scoring an aggregate of 23.
Another parent, Asmawu Sulemana, faced similar issues, having to travel to Accra to resolve her complaint, as the regional office could not process her request due to the school being outside the Northern Region.
