The Ghana Education Service (GES) has declared an optional Easter break for Form 2 students in Senior High and Senior High Technical Schools operating under the Transitional Track system.
In a statement dated April 11, 2025, and directed to all Regional Directors of Education, GES indicated that the break will commence on Thursday, April 17, and conclude on Monday, April 21, 2025.
“Students who wish to travel home and celebrate the Easter festivities with their families should be given the opportunity to do so,” they stated.
GES emphasized that the break is not compulsory. Students who prefer to stay on campus during the period will be allowed to do so under appropriate supervision.
“All students who will travel home are expected to return to school on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, to resume academic activities promptly,” the statement read.
This decision aims to provide flexibility for students and their families during the Easter season without disrupting the academic calendar.
