Categories Of Students Who Can’t Write 2023 WASSCE
The West African Examination Council has listed listed the various categories of students who can’t partake in the upcoming West African Secondary School Certificate Examination, 2023 (2023 WASSCE).
According to WAEC, the 2023 WASSCE is strictly for only form three or final year students at the SHS level.
Also, students who have not been enrolled in senior high school from their first year through to the third year and do not have the required continuous assessment records will not be allowed to write. The grading for the WASSCE (SC) is 70% external examination score and 30% continuous assessment score. Students who for one reason or the other transferred from one school to the other should have evidence of the necessary continuous assessment records.
Categories Of Students Who Can’t Write 2023 WASSCE
Aside this remedial students who have previously written the school WASSCE and have joined some public/accredited private schools in form three for examination purposes only will not be allowed to partake. Such students are being advised to register for the WASSCE for Private Candidates which has been specifically designed for remedial students and offers them the opportunity to register for the number of subjects they wish to take.
Below is the full statement from WAEC.
The WASSCE for School Candidates is a school examination and is available to students in the third/final year of Senior High School only. It is therefore against the rules and regulations of the examination for schools to engage in the following activities:
- Solicit for students and advertise the WASSCE for School Candidates in any form e.g. in the print, electronic or social media;
- Register students who have not been enrolled in senior high school from their first year through to the third year and do not have the required continuous assessment records. The grading for the WASSCE (SC) is 70% external examination score and 30% continuous assessment score. Students who for one reason or the other transferred from one school to the other should have evidence of the necessary continuous assessment records;
- Register students who are not in final year or are not bona fide students of the school in question. We have received intelligence reports of some students in public schools who move from their schools to private schools to register for the examination because of assurances of obtaining good grades by these schools;
- Register ‘remedial’ students who have previously written the WASSCE (SC) and join some public/accredited private schools in form three for examination purposes only. Such students are being advised to register for the WASSCE for Private Candidates which has been specifically designed for remedial students and offers them the opportunity to register for the number of subjects they wish to take.
