With the 2024 BECE results released, all parents and candidates are looking forward to the 2024 school placement. The release of the placement comes with its own stress, problems, and concerns. In this post, we are sharing with you the good, bad, and ugly to expect when the placement is released so that nothing surprises you.
The Good, Bad, and Ugly to Expect When the 2024 School Placement is Out
No. 1: Not all students will be placed. This is a fact; you cannot run away. The chances that you will be asked to do self-placement are very high.
No. 2: Not all students with good grades will be placed in a Category A school. Even students in grade 8 can miss placement in Category A schools.
No. 3: You may have a better grade and raw score than another student, but he or she will be placed in the same school you were not placed in. This happens if there is less competition in the program or accommodation choice he or she made compared to yours. If, for instance, you chose science and obtained grade 8, but you were not placed, it does not make another student with grade 8 who chose general arts equal to you because your programs are different. Sometimes candidates miss placement because they choose boarding accommodation, but while the school has more space to admit, the spaces are all-day options.
No. 4: Some parents will not like the schools their wards are placed in. Finally, they will opt for private SHS instead of public SHS.
No.5 : Some students and parents will find schools they did not choose on the placement details of their wards. When students are placed in such schools, parents may have to use the GES call centre for school placement to get it changed. This process takes time, and the change may sometimes never be effected.
No. 6: Students who do not choose schools from the self-placement module early will have to struggle to get into schools. Note that once the placement is released, all those who were not placed but passed the exam will be choosing schools from the limited numbers available at the same time. In this case, fast internet and how fast the person choosing is will go a long way to help you get placed. In many instances, you can see a school with vacancies, but before you complete the self-placement, you will be told there are no more slots.
No. 7: Some students will not be placed at all. These are those who failed mathematics or English language and obtained grade 9 in these subjects. Others who will not be placed are those who have withheld or canceled results still on their results. Often such persons are not placed and will not have any information when they check the placement.

No. 8: Some students will be placed in the very school they did not expect to be placed in, although they chose it. Remember, when you get placed in a school, your grades, raw scores, and accommodation types match.
No. 9 Some students will not like the schools they have been placed in, but there will be others who will be crying for the same schools because they have not been placed in them. It is all about gratitude and personal expectations, and self worth. As they say…”Want, want no get, and get, get no want” This means those who get do not want and those who want do not get.
Get ready for anything and everything.
