Ninety-one per cent of qualified students successfully placed so far-Education Ministry
A total of 492,437 students representing 91 per cent out of 538,399 candidates who qualified for placement have as of 9:30 am on Sunday, February 2023 been successfully placed in their Senior High and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) school of choice.
This is an improvement against the 372,721 (69 per cent) which did so through automatic placement a couple of days ago.
The Press Secretary to the Education Minister, Mr Felix A. Baidoo, who disclosed this to the media on Sunday explained that the 119,716 candidates were those who used the self-placement system for the selection of their choice of school.
He was upbeat that the remaining nine per cent left will surely go through the process so they could enroll in their choice of school.
The Press Secretary also praise the personnel of the National Resolution Centre for the swift handling of challenges brought to their attention
Commendation
Mr Baidoo also eulogized the Education Minister for the prudent measures put in place to ensure that anxious parents and their wards do not waste much time at the resolution centres.
He added that, as an institution that is human-centred, there was no way it would not come across challenges but the swiftness with which the Education Minister strategize to curb the challenges was worthy of commending.
