The Ghana Education Service (GES) has released the National Harmonised Prospectus for students who will be admitted to Senior High Schools (SHSs) for the 2026/2027 academic year.
The prospectus outlines the essential items required for both boarding and day students as they prepare to begin their second-cycle education.
In a statement issued on Thursday, September 3, 2026, and signed by the Head of Public Relations, Daniel Fenyi, the GES urged parents, guardians and prospective students to carefully review the prospectus and make the necessary preparations ahead of the new academic year.
The Service also directed schools and other relevant stakeholders to strictly adhere to the requirements outlined in the prospectus to ensure a smooth, standardised and efficient admission process across the country.
According to the GES, the release of the prospectus ahead of the school placement exercise is intended to guide parents and guardians on the essential items students will need upon enrolment.
The Service said the measure is also aimed at ensuring that fresh students report to their respective schools adequately prepared for the academic year.
GES has therefore urged parents, guardians and students to take note of the requirements and make the necessary preparations ahead of the commencement of the 2026/2027 academic year.
