In a social media post sighted by EducationWeb on Friday, March 25, 2022, the Education Service said “the 2021 Computerized School Selection and Placement System (CSSPS) portal will go live on Saturday, March 26, 2022.”

Announcing the release of the school placement today, the Public Relations Officer for the Ministry of Education (MoE), Kwasi Kwarteng said out of the 571,892 candidates who sat for the BECE, 555,353 qualified for school placement.

The spokesman also disclosed a total of 367,811 students who partook in the national examination administered by the West African Examinations Council last year have automatically been placed into various second cycle schools.

“This means a total of 187,542 qualified candidates will have to do self-placement to select from available schools since they could not be matched with any of their choices,” the staff of the Ministry of Education explained today.

Unfortunately, students who had grade 9 in English Language or Mathematics, Mr Kwasi Kwarteng said were not placed into any school based on the Computerized School Selection and Placement System (CSSPS) guideline policy.

  1. A big thanks to the Ghana Education Service, infact the team is doing well.
    But pls i do not know what caused the school placement too long and i think this should be see to, so it would not happened again as such.
    Besides, the ministry of education should do something about mathematics for us in the country. I read Visual Art Program in previous SHS and had written my WASSCE 2017, with aggregate 25 but because i had E8 core Mathematics i could not apply for tertiary level.
    I had tried Nov/Dec but i got the same E8 which is obvious that mathematics is not my field.

  15. I’ve purchased e-voucher on Your site using my momo account to do that, that is 0592239553 with registered name Gyau Ernest, but the feedback is telling me the voucher had been used by more than five people, prior to this, during the grade checking, I did same and I couldn’t use it, I let go and have to pass through all the stress and go to Café and do it again, indicating that the money I used to purchase go lost. This time around, I’ve purchased twice using it on the same person yet I cannot proceed and the feedback is as same as the initial one, that goes as “it is expired” so I need to get another one
