The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has completed the marking process for the 2024 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) scripts, signaling the near release of provisional results for this year's candidates. According to an official statement from the Ghana Education Service (GES), students can expect their results to be available by the second week of December 2024.
The Head of Public Affairs at WAEC shared with Accra-based Citi FM that efforts are underway to ensure the results are ready for release between December 9 and 15. This announcement has sparked a wave of anticipation among the 460,611 candidates who sat for the examination this year. These students, representing 1,003 Senior High Schools across the nation, have worked tirelessly and are now eager to see the fruits of their efforts.
The 2024 WASSCE began on August 5, 2024, with Visual Art Project work, and concluded on September 20, 2024. It was administered at 1,000 centers nationwide and involved 212,954 male and 247,657 female candidates.
However, WAEC has also addressed the issue of examination malpractice, revealing that 19,808 candidates' results have been withheld for further investigations, with some possibly canceled. This step emphasizes the council's commitment to upholding the integrity and credibility of its examination processes.
For candidates seeking clarity on their results' status, WAEC has provided a WhatsApp assistant service at +233 20 555 0989 to help students verify whether their results have been withheld or canceled. Additionally, affected candidates are encouraged to visit their nearest WAEC office to initiate an appeal if necessary.
This year's WASSCE journey has been one of dedication and resilience, and the upcoming results release marks the final milestone for these students. Stay tuned as the much-anticipated results draw nearer!
