The journey for BECE 2023 candidates is gearing up as they choose their preferred schools. A critical question arises: when will BECE candidates go to SHS in 2023? While the official academic calendar for the 2023/2024 year by the Ghana Education Service (GES) is still pending, projections based on previous years suggest an early January 2024 start for these candidates.
BECE 2023 Results and School Placements: The Path to SHS
Before the 2023 BECE candidates can embark on their Senior High School (SHS) journey, several key steps must be completed. The release of the 2023 BECE results is anticipated in late October or early November. Following the results, school placements will be announced, marking a significant milestone for the candidates.
Current Preparations and School Choices for BECE Candidates
As we await the critical dates, candidates are actively engaged in selecting their schools. The GES will announce SHS placements in due course, aligning with the resumption of schools. This period is a golden opportunity for BECE 2023 candidates to prepare for their transition to SHS. They are encouraged to research various SHS programs and courses thoroughly and to seek advice from current SHS students and teachers.

Navigating Challenges: The Free SHS Policy and Its Impact
The implementation of the Free SHS policy has significantly increased access to SHS education. However, challenges such as limited space and infrastructure still need to be addressed. Understanding these challenges is crucial for BECE candidates as they prepare to go to SHS in 2023.
At present, candidates are in the midst of selecting their preferred schools. The Ghana Education Service (GES) is set to announce the SHS placement results, after which candidates will proceed to their designated schools upon the commencement of the academic session.
In the meantime, it’s an important time for BECE 2023 candidates to leverage this opportunity to prepare for their transition to SHS and to find out about the various category A and category B schools in Ghana. They are advised to explore various SHS options to gain insights into the programs and courses offered, ensuring they make informed decisions. Engaging with current SHS students and teachers for advice is also highly beneficial.
