The Ghana Education Service (G.E.S) has identified some 29 SHSs in 8 regions with the intention to breach the WASSCE 2022 protocols and cheat during the examination. To ensure these schools do not engage in or get away with their illegal plans, the identified schools will have their scripts scrutinized during and after the examination has been conducted.
To this end, the GES has issued a strongly worded directive to all schools writing the WAEC administered WASSCE for school candidates through the Regional Directors. The directive was aimed at cautioning head teachers of schools in the list of schools identified by the GES. To ensure the rules of the examination are obeyed to make the WAEC assessment as fair as it is required to be, the GES also has outlined punitive actions to be taken against schools caught in acts of examination malpractices.
“Management of G.E.S is hereby informing all Regional Directors of Education concerned to caution heads of the identified Senior High Schools”
“Regional Directors of Education concerned are hereby been admonished to intensify monitoring of the conduct of the examination in all schools”. The GES communiqué indicated.
