The Ministry of Education has rescheduled the release of the 2026/2027 Computerised School Selection and Placement System (CSSPS) results from Monday, August 31, 2026, to Friday, September 4, 2026.
The Ministry said the decision follows requests from parents, guardians, students and Heads of Schools for additional time to complete the submission and uploading of students’ data onto the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) and CSSPS platforms.
According to the Ministry, the extension is intended to allow all qualified students to complete the necessary processes and ensure their information is captured for placement in Senior High Schools (SHS) and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions.
The Ministry disclosed that about 20,000 qualified students have yet to have their school choices uploaded onto the CSSPS platform by their Heads of Schools, parents or guardians.
It said the additional time would help prevent pending data submissions from excluding affected students from the placement process.
“Parents, guardians, students, and Heads of Schools are strongly urged to use this extension to submit and upload all outstanding information within the stipulated period,” the Ministry said.
The Ministry further assured stakeholders that it remains committed to ensuring a “fair, transparent, efficient, and orderly placement process” that provides every qualified student with a meaningful opportunity to secure placement in an SHS or TVET institution.
The revised release date for the 2026/2027 CSSPS placement results is Friday, September 4, 2026.
The statement was signed by Hashmin Mohammed, Press Secretary.
