The Ghana Education Service (GES) has officially rescheduled the reopening date for all single-track Senior High and Senior High Technical Schools in Ghana.

According to a new directive issued on March 27, 2025, the new reopening date has been set for April 23, 2025.

The directive, signed by Prince C. Agyeman-Duah, Director of the Schools and Instructions Division, on behalf of the Acting Director-General of the GES, urged regional directors to disseminate the new reopening date to all concerned stakeholders.

“By this letter, regional directors of education are requested to communicate this information to all heads of single-track senior high and senior high technical schools to inform parents, guardians, and students to take note of the new date and prepare accordingly,” the statement read. 

Originally, students were set to resume on March 29 after vacating on March 4.

However, the upcoming Eid-Ul-Fitr holiday on March 30 and 31 initially led to a shift to April 1. Following further assessment, GES extended the date to April 23 to ensure a smooth academic schedule.
