2025 SHS placement will be strictly merit-based – Education Ministry

The Ministry of Education has assured parents and candidates that the 2025 school placement exercise will be strictly merit-based, with no room for favouritism or influence.

Speaking at a press briefing in Accra on Wednesday, August 27, the Director-General of the Ghana Education Service (GES), Professor Ernest Kofi Davis, explained that placement into senior high schools will depend entirely on students’ performance in the 2025 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).

He said the process would consider a candidate’s aggregate score from six subjects — four core subjects and the two best electives — and in the case of a tie, raw scores would be used to rank students.

Professor Davis strongly cautioned parents and guardians against making payments to secure places in preferred schools, stressing that such actions are fraudulent and unnecessary. He assured the public that the placement system remains transparent and fair, ensuring that every student is placed based on merit.

To improve accuracy, candidates will be given an opportunity to confirm and review their school choices and personal details on the CSSPS portal between August 27 and September 1, with a second review window set from September 1 to September 8.

The final placement exercise will commence on September 17, and students are expected to report to their assigned schools between October 18 and October 20.

The Ministry reaffirmed its zero tolerance for fraud, urging the public to report any individuals posing as officials from GES, TVET, CSSPS, or FSHS who attempt to extort money under the guise of influencing placement.

“Following the release of the 2025 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) results, the Ministry of Education is providing a comprehensive update on the school placement exercise for all successful candidates. The Ministry assures all candidates and their families that the process will be fair, transparent, and strictly merit-based, ensuring every student has the opportunity to pursue their educational goals without discrimination.”

It also called for calm, assuring families that every child’s hard work will be rewarded fairly through a transparent system designed to give all students an equal opportunity to pursue their education.
