23RD January, 2026, Declared as National CPD Day for Teachers and a Holiday for Learners: GES.
Management of the Ghana Education Service (GES) wishes to declare 23RD JANUARY, 2026 as a National Continuous Professional Development (CPD) day.
This is in recognition of the importance of Continuous Professional Development for teachers.
This declaration aims to ensure that all teachers nationwide have the necessary institutional support and dedicated time to participate in Phase Two of the Cybersecurity and Data Protection training, thereby building the capacity of teachers without disruption.
In view of the above, 23RD JANUARY, 2026, is therefore declared as a holiday for learners.
The Management of GES is by this letter requesting all Regional Directors of Education to inform all Metro, Municipal, District Directors of Education, Heads of Basic Schools, and Second Cycle Institutions to adhere to the above directive with regard to the CPD day for our teachers.
Counting on your usual cooperation.
