2024 BECE Grading System
Do you know the 2024 BECE Grading System for the 2024 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) to be written from 8th June to 12th June, 2024.? Let’s take a look at the grading system.
As you already know, the BECE is an examination conducted for final year JHS students. The examination is both for certification and selection into Senior High Schools and Technical Institutes in Ghana.
2024 BECE Grading System
The BECE Grading system has been designed in a way that there is nothing like ‘Fail’ on the result slip of candidates. Unlike the WASSCE which shows ‘FAIL’ for marks less than 35, BECE shows LOWEST grade. This clearly means that there is nothing like fail in BECE.
However, this doesn’t mean that candidates should not learn. Any candidates who fail to get the best grades will not get admission into any senior high school in Ghana. The best option for these candidates is to write the BECE(Private Candidate), also known as BECE NOVDEC.

NB: WAEC sometimes uses the Stanine grading system for BECE. It is norm-referenced, meaning, the result’s architecture is pre-determined. Under Stanine, the % of candidates who will obtain Grade 1-9 is virtually fixed, so you must justify your inclusion into that percentage for example.
