The Ghana Education Service (GES) has released the timetable for the 2026 Staff Promotion Examination, outlining the dates on which eligible education personnel seeking promotion to various ranks are expected to sit for the examination.
According to the timetable, the examination will commence on Monday, November 2, 2026, and end on Wednesday, November 4, 2026.
The schedule covers six ranks, with candidates expected to take their examinations on different dates depending on their current positions within the education service.
Under the timetable, officers seeking promotion to the ranks of Director I and Director II will sit for their examinations on Monday, November 2, 2026, marking the opening day of the exercise.
Candidates seeking promotion to Principal Superintendent II and Assistant Director II (ADII) are scheduled to write their examinations on Tuesday, November 3, 2026.
The final day, Wednesday, November 4, 2026, has been designated for candidates seeking promotion to Assistant Director I and Deputy Director.
The timetable, issued on behalf of the Director-General of the Ghana Education Service, was signed by Professor Smile Dzisi, Deputy Director-General.
The announcement provides prospective candidates with the dates for their respective examinations, allowing them to prepare adequately for the promotion exercise.
Education personnel intending to participate in the examination are expected to take note of the dates assigned to their respective ranks and make the necessary preparations ahead of the exercise.
The GES timetable, however, does not specify the examination venues, reporting times or other administrative arrangements.
Further details on such arrangements would therefore be subject to additional communication from the relevant authorities.
