POSTING OF GES STAFF RETURNING FROM STUDY LEAVE WITH PAY
We bring to the notice of all prospective GES Staff returning from Study Leave with Pay that, the 2025 posting form has been uploaded online for qualified teachers to apply.
We encourage you to provide the required and accurate information as requested.
Please visit https://bit.ly/STUDYLEAVERETURN2025 to complete your forms.
The filling of online postings forms begins on Tuesday 4th November, 2025 and ends on Friday 7th November, 2025.
All staff who are returning from Study Leave with Pay are required to complete the form.
What is Study Leave with Pay in GES?
For context, the GES Study Leave with Pay program allows teachers and staff to pursue further education (e.g., bachelor’s, master’s, or diplomas) while receiving their salary. Upon completion, they must return to service and apply for reposting. This 2025 form ensures smooth reassignment to schools or offices, often prioritizing regions with shortages. The policy supports professional development and aligns with Ghana’s education goals under the Free SHS initiative.
Who is Eligible and Required to Apply?
- Eligibility: All GES staff (teachers and non-teaching) returning from approved study leave with pay in 2025.
- Requirement: Mandatory completion of the form. Failure to apply may delay or complicate your posting.
- Note: This is for those who have completed their studies and are ready to resume duties. If your leave is ongoing, wait for your completion date.
From GES guidelines (verified via official sources), applicants must provide accurate info to avoid issues like mismatched postings.

Why This Matters for Ghana’s Education Sector
With over 300,000 GES staff, efficient postings ensure smooth school operations, especially post-COVID recovery. Study leave returnees bring fresh skills, boosting teaching quality under the new curriculum. However, challenges like rural postings persist—GES encourages equity-focused applications.
