2022 Withheld WASSCE Results And Matters Arising
Following the release of the 2022 WASSCE results on December 1st, 2022, some students still haven’t received their full results. Others received the results of one or two of their courses and the rest, withheld. This is due to some alleged examination malpractices engaged in by the students.
Matters Arising
1. The entire results of some 117 candidates have been withheld pending the conclusion of investigations into alleged cases of impersonation detected during the examination.
2. The scripts of some other candidates from 179 schools in certain subjects are being scrutinised for reported cases of collusion
3. WAEC is yet to make a statement to determine the fate of such schools of students who were allegedly involved in examination malpractices.
2022 Withheld WASSCE Results And Matters Arising
4. Some of the withheld results have been released. Others haven’t seen a change in their ‘W’ grade.
5. Most of these students couldn’t enter the university this year because of their withheld results. Several of them are stranded as Nov/Dec seems to be on their minds.
What Students Whose Results Have Been Withheld Could Do.
1. Wait until WAEC determines their fate.
2. Contact the schools academics or head to give you update on your results.
3. Pray.
4. In case the withheld results are eventually cancelled, the school could go for an appeal.
This comes after the West African Examination Council (WAEC) released the provisional results of the 2022 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
The Council has hosted the results online and candidates who so desire may access their results at the Council’s website, www.waecgh.org.
Meanwhile, following a request from the Ghana Education Service (GES), the subject results of 8,486 candidates who failed to return learning support materials supplied to them and/or destroyed school property cannot be accessed online at the Council’s website.
The affected candidates are advised to visit their schools for their results.
Performance statistics
A total number of 422,883 candidates made up of 203,753 males and 219,130 females from 977 schools sat for the examination.
This figure is 5.25% lower than the 2021 entry figure of 446,352. A total number of 2,818 (0.6796) of the candidates who registered were absent from the examination.
Data from WAEC shows the candidates performed better in Social Studies over a three-year period (2020-2022).
English Language, Core Mathematics, and Integrated Science on the other hand showed a fluctuating trend in the performance of candidates over the three-year period (2020-2022).
Cancelled Results
The subject results of 3,845 candidates have been cancelled for sending foreign material into the examination hall.
The entire results of some 518 candidates have also been cancelled for sending mobile phones into the examination hall.
Withheld results
The entire results of some 117 candidates have also been withheld pending the conclusion of investigations into alleged cases of impersonation detected during the examination.
The scripts of some other candidates from 179 schools in certain subjects are being scrutinised for reported cases of collusion.
“The withheld results of candidates may be cancelled or released based on the outcome of the investigations.”
