The academic year begins on Wednesday, October 30, 2024, for all SHS, whereas, the current first-year students in transitional calendar schools will end their 2023/24 academic year on Monday, October 28, 2024, and be promoted to Form Two to continue with the new academic year immediately.
This is contained in a press release from the GES signed by Mr Prince Agyeman-Duah, Director of Schools and Instructions Division, and copied to the Ghana News Agency.
According to the statement, the incoming first-year students for Single Track and Transitional Schools would begin school on Wednesday, October 30, 2024.
