GES Releases Postings for University Graduate Teachers: Excitement Among Applicants

The Ghana Education Service (GES) has released postings for university graduate teachers who applied for the advertised teaching jobs earlier this year. The announcement has brought relief to applicants eagerly waiting to begin their teaching careers in Ghana’s public schools.

Applicants can check their posting status from Friday, November 22, 2024, via the GES recruitment portal at www.gespromotions.gov.gh. Successful candidates can also download their appointment letters from the same platform.

Key Details of the Release

This release is exclusively for graduates from universities who applied for teaching positions through the GES recruitment process. It does not include the 2022 College of Education graduates, who were posted earlier in the year.

In its announcement, the GES emphasized that the postings followed a rigorous selection process, ensuring that only qualified candidates who met the specified requirements were shortlisted.

Applicants React to Long-Awaited Postings

The release has sparked mixed reactions among applicants:

• Joy and Excitement: Many university graduates have expressed their excitement, especially after months of anxious waiting.
• Criticism of Delays: Others have criticized the timing, noting that the postings were released just two weeks before the 2024 general elections, leading to speculations about political motives.

Despite the criticisms, the release represents a significant milestone for university graduates seeking to contribute to Ghana’s education system.

GES Statement on the Postings

In a social media post, the GES stated:

“The Ghana Education Service (GES) is pleased to announce the release of postings for successful applicants who applied for teaching in the service.”

The GES did not disclose the total number of applicants or those successfully posted, leaving these figures open to further inquiry.

1. Log in to the GES portal at www.gespromotions.gov.gh.
2. Check their posting status and confirm their selection.
3. Download their appointment letters and follow the outlined steps for reporting to their assigned schools.

This release sets the stage for the integration of new university-trained teachers into the Ghana Education Service, marking an important development in the education sector. The deadline is on November 30, 2024.
