Which Category of Graduates are Eligible?

Answer

According to the Ghana Education Service (GES), the ongoing graduate recruitment into the public pre-tertiary educational institutions was meant for only graduates with a degree in  Education.

The GES in a statement released indicated, that it was requested from the general public, applications from persons with a degree in  Education for recruitment into the service.

The statement issued by the GES and signed by its Deputy Director General, Anthony Boateng, indicated that the Recruitment Exercise is not applicable to existing staff of the Ghana Education Service who wish to change their postings.

The GES advertisement ignored the Diploma holders in its ongoing recruitment into the service.

The decision was likely to be due to the posting of the 2019 batch of graduates with a Diploma in BASIC Education from the Colleges of Education who were earlier recruited into the service.

Can University Graduates who did not offer Education (Non-Teaching Staff) also Apply?

Answer

This is a Controversial issue since there are opportunities for Non-Teaching Staff. Although GES was emphatic, that the ongoing graduate recruitment into the public pre-tertiary educational institutions was meant for only graduates who offered education related programmes in the university, there was an option to select non teaching staff during the application process, however it has currently been closed.

For Instance, with a Bachelor Degree in Accounting Education, you can be offered the opportunity to teach in the Public Senior High Schools or work as an administrative staff either in the Schools or at the GES Offices.

What is the Difference between Major Course, Minor Courses and Courses Offered?

Answer

Course Offered: This refers to the particular programme of study. For instance a Bachelor Degree in Accounting Education (B.ED Accounting).

Major Course: This refers to a primary focus of study in relation to a specific subject area where the student wants to priorities in.

The specific subject area must be related to the course offered by the student.

For instance, a B.ED Accounting Student could have Accounting as a major course.

Minor Course: This refers to a secondary focus of study in relation to a specific subject area which enhances the study of a major course.

It is basically aimed at adding more value to a major course but plays a lesser role in the student’s course of study.

For instance, a B.ED Accounting Student could have Management as a minor course.
