The Ghana Education Service (GES) has warned against the imposition of unauthorized Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) registration fees on final-year students.

This comes after allegations surfaced on social media that some heads of basic schools were charging unapproved fees for BECE registration.

In a statement issued on February 12, GES management emphasized that these charges are unauthorized and directed all school heads to stop the practice immediately.

“Regional Directors are instructed to alert District Directors to monitor the situation and caution all Heads of Basic schools. Any head who has collected such unauthorised fees is required to refund the monies promptly. Failure to comply will result in sanctions.
