The Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), has called for an independent committee to investigate the leaked WASSCE papers, instead of its cancellation.
Speaking on GBC’s ‘Behind the News’, General Secretary of the Association, Thomas Musah said WAEC has lost its credibility and supports calls for a new body to break the monopoly of WAEC.
“First, there is an issue, the issue must first and foremost be investigated and then the outcome of the investigations will bring the matter to finality. If you have an independent body to investigate this thing, the subsequent recommendation will tell us the way to go. But when you have different bodies proffering solutions, it will be very difficult as a people to find solution to the problem, which is leakage of exam.”
On Sunday, August 16, the Core Mathematics paper scheduled for Monday, August 17, was seen circulating on social media with worked-out answers.
Although some people thought it was fake, it turned out to be genuine as the very questions were contained in the paper written on Monday.
