Basic schools to return to pre- COVID-19 academic calendar, to reopen on October 3

In a crucial move to restore the pre-COVID-19 academic timeline and enhance educational system stability, the Ghana Education Service (GES) has scheduled the reopening date for public basic schools for the 2023/2024 academic year for October 3rd, 2023.

The disruption caused by the global pandemic had necessitated adjustments to the academic calendar. However, with the situation gradually stabilizing, Ghana is taking a crucial step towards restoring its educational calendar to normalcy.

Currently, public basic schools are concluding their vacation period, with students, parents, and teachers eagerly anticipating the start of the new academic year.

Cassandra Twum-Ampofo, the Public Relations Officer of GES, explained the decision in an interview with the media she stated that, "We recognize the importance of re-establishing a familiar academic routine for our students and ensuring that they can continue their educational journey with minimal disruptions."

Stakeholders in the education sector are optimistic that this development will create a stable learning environment, allowing students to concentrate on their studies and enabling teachers to deliver quality education.

As the nation prepares to usher in the 2023/2024 academic year, there is a sense of renewed hope and determination to overcome past challenges and provide Ghana's youth with the quality education they deserve.
