Ghana gets new SHS, Senior High and Tech/Voc schools now 722

Senior High and Technical Vocational schools in Ghana have now increased from 721 to 722, the Management of the Ghana Education Service (GES) is yet to be officially announced to members of the general public.

The increase comes after the Ghana Education Service (GES) in a statement sighted by Educationweb.com.gh announced the completion of the Senior High School (SHS) named after former President John Agyekum Kuffour.

The John Agyekum Kuffour Senior High School (SHS) located in Sokoban in Kumasi of the Ashanti Region according to the statement is ready for the 2020/2021 school placement and for admission for the new academic year.

The Kumasi-based J. A Kuffour Senior High School (SHS) is expected to offer programmes like business, Home Economics and General Arts.

The Ministry of Education as it prepares towards the release of the much-awaited 2020 SHS placement of BECE candidates has been entreated to add the new public SHS to the CSSPS public system as Day/Boarding school.

We will not be surprised to see 722 Senior High and Technical & Vocational schools in the school selection or self-placement module when the BECE school placement is finally released from Wednesday, February 24, 2021.
