The Ghana School of Law (GSL) has postponed examinations scheduled for Monday, June 29, 2026, following heavy rainfall and flooding that disrupted movement across several parts of Accra, including routes leading to the examination centre.
In a notice issued to students on Monday morning, the School’s Management said it had closely monitored weather conditions for more than two hours and, after consultations with the Chair of the Independent Examinations Committee (IEC), decided to delay the examinations in the interest of students’ safety.
Management urged students not to put themselves at risk by attempting to travel through flooded roads or heavy rainfall to reach the examination venue.
The School assured students that the postponement would not adversely affect any candidate.
“No student will be disadvantaged with respect to the examinations as a result of this act of God,” the notice stated.
It further explained that the examinations would not commence until weather conditions had improved and students had been given sufficient time to travel safely, should the examinations proceed later in the day.
Students have been advised to monitor their official email accounts, mobile phones, WhatsApp, the School’s official website and its social media platforms for further updates.
“Your safety remains our highest priority. We appreciate your patience, understanding, and cooperation as we continue to monitor the situation,” Management added.
The decision follows widespread flooding across Accra after heavy rains on Monday morning disrupted transportation, commercial activities and access to several public institutions.
Earlier weather advisories had warned of heavy rainfall and the possibility of flash flooding in parts of southern Ghana. Several roads across the capital became inundated, leaving commuters stranded and affecting the operations of businesses, schools and other public institutions.
The Ghana School of Law said it would continue to monitor the evolving weather conditions and communicate any further decisions to students as the situation improves.
