Computerised Schools Selection and Placement for 2009 B.E.C.E. Candidates

By Ekow Mensah • August 26th, 2009

With the release of the 2009 B.E.C.E results, I am sure graduands all over the country are waiting anxiously to know which school they have been placed into.

The management of the Computerized School Selection and Placement System (CSSPS) are doing everything possible to eliminate all errors to ensure that candidates are placed into the right senior high schools according to merit. 

The raw scores of candidates who wrote the 2009 BECE have been sent to the CSSPS and from information received so far, candidates would know latest by the end of first week in September the school they have been placed into by texting their index number to some short codes which would be made known soon.

In general, the results of the 2009 BECE was not very encouraging as compared to the 2008 BECE results so candidates with aggregate 7 and 8 should not worry much since it is highly probable that they can get placed into their first choice senior high schools.

What we have to worry over however is the categorization of Senior High Schools and the high number of candidates writing the exams. Ministry of education would have to put systems in place to ensure that only qualified form three students write the next BECE. If over 500,000 students wrote the 2009 BECE, the big question is; would all this students get Senior High Schools to attend?

To the 2009 BECE candidates, I pray you get placed into your respective first choice senior high schools.
