The West African Examination Council (WAEC) has released provisional results of the 2020 West African Senior Schools Certificate Examinations (WASSCE).
“This follows the completion of all post-examination processes,” WAEC said in a statement on Friday, November 13.
“The results of the candidates will be dispatched to their schools.”
Candidates
have, therefore, been advised to contact their heads of school for their
results.
The 2020 WASSCE began on July 20, 2020 with 375,763 candidates from 976 schools.
“The
provisional results indicate that there were improvements in the performance of
candidates at Grades A1 to C6 in English Language and Mathematics (Core) in
2020 as compared to 2019.
“On the
other hand, Integrated Science and Social Studies recorded a decline in the
performance of the candidates at Grades A1 to C6 as compared to 2019.”
WAEC says
the subject results of 2,383 candidates have been cancelled for “engaging in
collusion, bringing foreign material to the examination hall and tearing part
of their question paper to solicit assistance”.
The
entire results of 480 candidates have also been cancelled for bringing mobile
phones to the exam hall.
The
entire results of 384 candidates have also been withheld pending conclusion of
investigations into various cases of exam malpractice detected during and after
the conduct of the examinations.
