Some first year students and their parents who turned up at the Mfantsipim School in the Central Region with their trunks and chop boxes on Sunday were left stranded after they were turned away by authorities of the school because they had been wrongly placed.
The school's authorities claim the students, numbering more than 50, were wrongly placed under the self-placement module of the Computerised School Selection Placement System (CSSPS) and that they could not get space in the school. The situation is creating panic as parents who travelled from near and far were in a fix about what to do.
A disillusioned parent who spoke to the Daily Graphic said upon arrival at the school, a notice on the bulletin board informed them that the school was not admitting the first year students who did self-placement because they had been wrongly placed.
She said however, that students who were automatically placed by the CSSPS had been admitted in the school.
