The school placement for 2023 is likely to be revealed shortly after the Heads of SHS/TVI Portal goes live. The Heads of SHS/TVI Portal is a website extension of the School Placement Portal that allows the heads of various SHSs and TVIs to access data about Junior High School graduates who have been placed in their schools.
What is the anticipated release date for School Placement in 2023?
Officially, the MoE has yet to announce the precise day on which the 2022/2023 School Placements will be released; nevertheless, we can anticipate the date based on the reopening date and past practice.
- Students in SHS1 are anticipated to report to school on February 20, 2023.
- The Ministry of Education usually provides school placements at least one week before the resumption date for SHS1 students.
- As a result, we anticipate that the 2023 computerized school placement for 2022 BECE graduates will be available between February 8th and February 13th, 2023.
Parents would have to visit the schools where their children have been assigned in order to enroll them, obtain the school prospectus, and purchase some secondary school essentials for the students. The above-mentioned dates are expected to provide parents plenty of time to prepare.
After the school placements are announced, one of these FOUR (4) things will happen to children.
- Some will be assigned to one of their six school options.
- Some students will be sent to one of the other schools if they choose the cluster option during the school selection process.
- Even if they passed the BECE or received the required raw marks, some students will be required to do the self-placement.
- Others will not be placed in any school and will not be able to self-place since they may have received a grade 9 in English or Mathematics, or their results may have been revoked, and so on.
Vital Information for Parents and Students Ahead of the 2023 Computerized School Placement
Check the school placements as soon as they are announced so that if you need to do a self-placement, you can do so fast and receive a “good school” from the available schools. If you wait too long, others may choose the finest option in the database ahead of you.
Parents should not leave their children alone to check the outcomes. Because if the candidates self-place, they may not get the correct help or may have to wait for you to get home to help them make a selection. This can result in the consequence described in reason one above.
