Accra, Ghana– The Ghana Education Service (GES) has officially announced that the first Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) following the implementation of the New Common Core Program (CCP) Curriculum is scheduled for July 2024.

This significant development was disclosed as part of the recently released academic calendar for the 2023–2024 academic year, which affects basic schools across the country.

The New Common Core Program (CCP) Curriculum is a comprehensive education reform initiative aimed at enhancing the quality of education in the country.

This new curriculum has been designed to provide students with a broader and more well-rounded educational foundation, integrating both core subjects and a range of practical skills and knowledge to better prepare them for the challenges of the future.

Introducing the New CCP Curriculum represents a major step forward in Ghana’s education sector, aligning the country’s educational standards with international best practices. It also aims to foster critical thinking, problem-solving, and innovation among students.

As the BECE is a crucial milestone in the educational journey of Ghanaian students, the transition to the New CCP Curriculum will mark a significant change in the examination. Students and educators will need to adapt to the new curriculum and its requirements to ensure success in the upcoming BECE.

The Ministry of Education encourages students, parents, and educators to embrace this transformative change, as it will ultimately contribute to a more holistic and robust education system. In the lead-up to the July 2024 BECE, the government is expected to provide further guidance and support to facilitate a smooth transition for students and teachers.
