Outstanding challenges in school placement will be addressed before schools reopen – Education Minister

Minister of Education Haruna Iddrisu assured students and parents that outstanding challenges in the Senior High School placement process would be resolved before schools reopen. Iddrisu visited the National Resolution Centre in Accra to gather firsthand information on issues arising from the placement system. He emphasized the government's commitment to ensuring no student is left behind and pledged to treat all concerns brought to the Centre with urgency.

The Ministry of Education announced plans to conduct a comprehensive review of the Computerised School Selection and Placement System (CSSPS), following demands for increased transparency and accountability. A Technical Working Committee will be established post-current placement exercise to identify areas for improvement. The Ministry welcomed the Ghana Catholic Bishops' Conference call for an "ultimate review" of the CSSPS, reiterating its commitment to maintaining a merit-based system that is fair, efficient, and responsive to the needs of students, parents, and schools.
