The Ghana Education Service (GES) has announced to parents and guardians that a decision has been taken to rein-in on the free-for-all admission system that has come with the government’s Free Senior High School program.

In a release signed by Cassandra Twum Ampofo, PRO of the GES, parents were told that a new grading criterion has been adopted to ensure that public Senior High Schools are not inundated with thickheaded dunderheads who perform badly at the Junior High School level and graduate to SHS as a matter of course under Free SHS.

“The Ministry Of Education and the Ghana Education Service have compromised to put a cut-off-point to this year’s BECE. ie grade: Twenty-five(25). Therefore candidates who would get grade Twenty-six(26) and above, would not get the opportunity to enter the SHS.

“The Ghana Education Service therefore informs candidates who are preparing to write this year’s BECE to pay heed to the above notification seriously.”

According to the statement, the new measure is informed by research findings made by the GES which showed that at least 50% of candidates performed poorly in last year’s Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE), but have been herded through the Free SHS program to Senior High Schools across the country to glut them.

“A research made by the Ghana Education Service has revealed that about fifty percent (50%) candidates performed poorly in last year’s BECE, yet they had the opportunity to be enrolled in the various senior high schools in the country, due to the Free-for-all-SHS.”

With a worried tone, the GES statement called on parents to be extra responsible in ensuring that their children who are candidates in this year’s BECE, study hard and scale the aggregate 25 cut off grade. Students who attain grades above that will not get the opportunity to make it to SHS in spite of Free SHS, the GES warned.

“The Ghana Education Service wishes to inform the general public/ parents/ guardians to advise their wards, who are in the final year and preparing to write the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) in June, to study hard and also take their books as their friends,” Cassandra Twum Ampofo wrote.
