Grade 11 Selection Lists for 2024 - Update

PNG Insight has received numerous comments and questions regarding the 2024 Grade 11 selection for Momase, Highlands, Southern, and New Guinea Islands regions. Rather than answering individual queries, we aim to address the question in this article: when will the official Grade 11 selection list be released? 

Note that some principals have already released the Grade 11 selection lists for their schools, but the official selection lists for this year are NOT published on the education department website at the time of this article.


UPDATE 20/12/2023

Grade 11 Selection Lists for 2024 - Update


Grade 11 Online Selection

The General Education Services Division (GES) is responsible for leading and facilitating the release of the Grade 11 selection list, as detailed in this article. Since 2020, the Education Department has conducted the selection online. This simply means principals select students and submit their data to GES for finalisation.

With the streamlined online process, one might expect the selection to take place in less than two weeks after the Grade 10 results are released. Two weeks was the timeframe when principals and provincial committees flew to Port Moresby for manual selection. 

(Note that DHERST Grade 12 selection takes LESS THAN 35 SECONDS. That's a fact, here is the PNG Insight's video on YouTube of the DHERST secretary explaining the process.)


Grade 11 Selection List for 2024: Published

Some secondary schools have released their own Grade 11 selection lists for 2024, either on notice boards or social media. 

While this may seem convenient, be aware that these lists are unofficial unless officially signed by the Education Secretary. If the Secretary's signature and date are absent, disregard the list as invalid.

If the Education Secretary's signature and date are present and current, it implies the Grade 11 selection lists are ready. They are now in the hands of the GES Division and the ICT Division of the Education Department.

Unfortunately, even with the online system, there will be a wait. Patience is key.


Past Release Dates: A Reference Point

PNG Insight has tracked education and development trends in Papua New Guinea since 2014. The following dates, which we have recorded and analysed over the years, may be helpful for reference. 

Note that since 2020 (inclusive), selections have been conducted online, but the release date still falls around mid-December, similar to when the selections were conducted manually. No impact on effectiveness and efficiency.

Year – Release Date

2023 – Wed 20th December 2023 (Online Selections)

2022 – Mon 19th December 2022 (Online Selections)

2021 – Wed 22nd December 2021 (Online Selections)

2020 – Wed 23rd December 2020 (Online Selections)

2019 – Tue 24th December 2019 (Manual Selections)

2018 – Thur 20th December 2018 (Manual Selections)


Discussion Points (Grade 10 Results and Grade 11 Selections)

The Department of Education should prioritise the inclusion of both the Grade 10 Exam Results Release Date and the Grade 11 Selection Publication Date within the official Education Calendar. Or at the least, inform the public like what the higher education department (DHERST) did this year.

Doing so would provide clear direction and a definitive timeframe for the Measurement Services Division (MSD) and General Education Services Division (GES) to work towards. 

This clarity would not only benefit the MSD and GES, but also students, parents, principals, and the general public. These events, being national and recurring, deserve planning and transparency. There's no need to keep people guessing.

We hope this information clarifies the current situation and provides some reassurance to students and parents awaiting the official Grade 11 selection list.

The Department of Education (NDoE) has YET to release the Grade 11 selection Lists 2023 for 2024 PDF.

Grade 11 selection Lists 2024 for 2024 PDF



When will the Grade 11 selection list for 2023 for 2024 come out?

Last year, despite a one-week delay in the release of Grade 10 exam results, the Grade 11 selection lists were published relatively early. However, this year's Grade 11 selection process, initially scheduled for 4th - 8th December, encountered further delays due to the Grade 10 exam results. (Here is more information)

Rest assured, the Grade 11 selection, unlike previous years, will be completed within a week. Considering the time required to finalise the selection list and upload it to the Education Department website, expect the list to be published by mid-December.

Here are the past release dates compared to the 2023 Grade 11 selections and release date.

2024 Grade 11 Selection List PNG National High and Secondary Schools - info & update

The Grade 11 selection list for 2024 is usually released by the General Education Services (GES) of the National Education Department before the end of the year, mid-December. Perhaps it is important to understand the effort (and appreciate the timebound work) the education officials put into selecting the Grade 11 students.

In this article, we provide information and updates on Grade 11 selections and the Selection List based on what we observed in the past.

Grade 11 Selection for 2024

Here is a brief of how the grade 11 selection takes place, starting with the students taking the exams until the release of the Grade 11 selection list in PDF. 

The 6 pointers will help you to understand the selection process as you await the list to come out this year - see the link below for the latest update on PNG Insight:

  • 1. Grade 10 Exams taken by students in schools in the provinces.
  • 2. Grade 10 Students' scripts are marked in the provinces.
  • 3. Results are sent from the provincial marking centres to the Education Department in Port Moresby (MSD deals with the online Grade 10 results/marks).
  • 4. MSD and General Education Services (a section of the National Department of Education) facilitate the selection.
  • 5. Provincial reps, principals and education officers meet in the provinces and use the Grade 10 students' final results to select the 2024 Grade 11 students for national and secondary schools in the country.
  • 6. The 2024 Grade 11 students selection PDF lists are published on the education department website.

A recent article on Grade 10 results and Grade 11 selection is available here.

How long does it take to do Grade 11 selection?

In 2020, it took 10 days (from the end of the selection) for the GES to publish the Grade 11 selection list. It took longer in 2021 (3 weeks) to finalise the publishing of the selection list in PDF. In 2022, the exam results came out 2 days early - this was since the selection was computerised, and done online. PNG Insight expects the 2023 Grade 11 selection for the 2024 academic year to take place within a week and finalised the published thereafter. Here is the latest article, read about it.

This may seem long for the waiting parents and stakeholders, but it is important to get it right and also for the education secretary to see the selection listing. 

Therefore, though it is a time-bound selection, GES and the education department do it well in 10 days after selections have been made.

IMPORTANT UPDATE 22 DEC 2021: The Grade 11 Selection Lists for all the Regions and Nationa High Schools are OUT NOW (22nd DECEMBER 2022). 

As we predicted, the list came out 2 weeks after the Grade 11 Selection Committee had completed the selection. 

The education department website is slow due to a high volume of traffic. You may find this frustrating, so go easy.

You can ACCESS THE GRADE 11 SELECTION LISTS HERE

  • Update#2: The 2022 Grade 11 selection is in progress.
  • Update#1: Grade 10 exam marks released to the selection committee on the 5th of December 2021

According to the Education Secretary, the Grade 10 national exam results will be released to the Grade 11 Selection Conference on the 5th of December 2021.

That means that the 2021 Selection lists for National High and Secondary Schools are likely to be published after 2 weeks after the release of the results.

2024 Grade 11 Selection List PDF: Key Information

Grade 11 selection - How to find your name


Parents, guardians and relevant stakeholders can download the files and check for their children's names. 

Here is a quicker way to search for the new grade 11 students' names on the PDF file:

1. Download the right regional file

The 2024 Grade 11 selection list is available online at the NDOE (National Department of Education) website. 

There, you'll find both the secondary and National High school selection lists. The link is provided above.

2. Use the PDF search bar

It can take a long time to locate a student's name among the thousands of students. To make it easy, type the name of the student in the search bar and click search. 

If the name is on the selection list for 2024, it will appear in a matter of seconds. Fast.

3. Confirm the name and school

It is important to make sure the selected student from the *feeder* school goes to the right upper secondary school. 

You can do that by cross-checking the selection list or confirming with the school admin.

Grade 11 students things to do before 2024 school year starts...


1. Confirm your name with the school list. Important.

This is an ideal time to correct any spelling errors or misunderstandings. If it means calling the school, the new Grade 11 student and parents may have to do that before school starts. 

Iron out any misunderstanding you may have as the key stakeholder.

2. Visit the school

Many town schools are day schools but it is better to visit your school before the academic year 2024 starts. 

This is vital as parents and you may meet the teachers and school admin, and get information prior to starting school. 

3. Prepare for the academic year

You will need new clothes, uniforms and shoes before p classes commence. But above all, it is a must to have pens (key tools to write with), a ruler, a bag and a calculator (for use in maths lessons). Only buy things you'll need and can think of. Anything you do not need now can be collected later.

4. Prepare your mind

Education is becoming very competitive. If you're a 2024 Grade 11 selected student you must start early by preparing your mind. Set target for the national grade 12 exams and work towards it.  

One thing I must add here is reading - read as many books as you can. Read out loud. Read in silence. Read books.

Do you want to be intelligent?

Read.

5. Do the extra

The students whose names are on the 2024 Grade 11 selection list are celebrating. You can celebrate in style too. Do some charity work. Or be a good Samaritan. Do good works in secret and unintentionally. The good you do now will come back to you in amazing ways. Tenfold. 

Hope you have a good and fulfilling year.
