New 2023 GES Academic Calendar for Basic Schools (KG – JHS 3)

The New 2023 GES Academic Calendar for Basic School was released yesterday by the Ghana Education Service after consultation with some of the stakeholders of education. This timetable came weeks after the drafted one which was first in circulation. As confused as many teachers are as to which timetable among the two timetables in circulation on social media. To clarify things so teachers can have knowledge on the GES academic calendar for basic schools that is currently in use, and schedule their notes and other activities for the term, GES wrote letter to notify all Regional Directors of Education to subsequently, inform all teachers of the new development.

BECE is on record to be written in September, 2023.

The timetable has been carefully categories into the various forms/classes for easy navigation. Relax and check out and plan for the term/Semester accordingly.
