Structured Schedules
The calendar features tailored tracks for different student levels and forms, optimizing learning time and academic planning.
Breaks and Holidays
Eligible voters will enjoy a brief break from December 5 to 9, 2024, while Christmas break spans from December 20, 2024, to January 2, 2025.
Implementation and Adherence
Regional directors must communicate the calendar details to institution heads, ensuring strict adherence.
Stabilizing the Academic Schedule
This adjustment addresses disruptions caused by external factors like the COVID-19 pandemic, providing ample time for academic learning and national examinations.
Conclusion
The GES reaffirms its commitment to a stable and effective academic environment. This revised calendar reinstates structure and aligns Ghana’s education system with future WASSCE and Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) schedules.
