What is CSSPS Self Placement?

Self-Placement is a process that allows such candidates to go into the CSSPS portal and select from schools with available vacancies

Only Schools with available vacancies are displayed on the portal.
Schools with vacancies will be displayed for candidates to choose from based on their aggregate
Schools shown have their location and residential options available.
A candidate can change schools as many times as possible depending on available spaces. The changes CEASE immediately a candidate enrolls in a school.

Here are all the procedures a candidate must follow for self-placement;

If a candidate selects Boarding, all schools with boarding vacancies will be displayed.
If a candidate selects Day, there will be a drop-down menu for the candidate to select:
- Day within Catchment Area: OR
- A Day school outside the catchment area
The Day within catchment area option displays only schools with Day vacancies within 16 km of the JHS the candidate attended.
A Day outside catchment area displays all schools with day vacancies. Before the ‘Day outside catchment area’ option is effected, the candidate must confirm again if they intend to attend school outside their catchment area as a Day Student
Programme of choice is selected. After successfully going through this process, the Candidate then prints the placement form and proceeds to the school enrolment.
