The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) will conduct this year’s Basic Education Certificate Examination, BECE, for private candidates from today to the 15th of February.
A statement from the Council says 2,154 students made up of 1,210 males and 944 females will be taking the examination.
It will take place at eleven centers across the country. The Council wished all candidates success in the papers and urged supervisors and invigilators to be vigilant during the examination.
The examination is both for certification and selection into Senior High Schools and Technical Institutes in Ghana. It consists of candidates who previously sat for BECE but could not make the required grade(s) and first-time candidates who must be 16 years and above.
The examination is conducted in the regional capitals of Ghana in February each year.
