WAEC releases provisional results for BECE 2017 - Here's The List of 1,298 Candidates whose Results have been withhold for cheating

25 days earlier than expected, the West African Examinations Council
(WAEC) has released the first provisional result for the Basic
Education Certificate Examination in 2017.

In a statement released by the examination board and cited by
AyooGhana.com, WAEC stated that the results were hosted on its
official website.

According to the release, some 1,298 candidates who sat for the
examination in June have their results withheld on suspicion of
cheating.

The number of results which have been withheld pending further
investigations marked 0.28% of the total candidature who sat for the
BECE.
"The Council takes this opportunity to advise candidates to do
independent work in the examination hall and to avoid seeking any form
of illegal assistance as such acts would be detected and sanctions
applied accordingly."
Most students can check their results from their school as results of
the 15,185 schools have been sent to municipal and district directors
of education for onward dispatch to the schools.
Other students can also visit the official WAEC website to access the
results online. The release also noted that "there are no failures in
BECE" with the new grading system used by WAEC.
