Full 2024 BECE Sample WAEC Questions (Donwload Now)

The National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA) has introduced the new Common Core Curriculum, which the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) will use to administer the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) for 2024. The subjects to be administered include:

1. English Language
2. Mathematics
3. Integrated Science
4. Social Studies
5. Religious and moral education
6. Computing (ICT)
7. French (Optional)
8. Career Technology
9. Ghanaian language and culture
10. Career Technology
11. Arabic

These subjects cover a wide range of skills and knowledge areas essential for the holistic development of students in basic education. The Common Core Curriculum emphasizes critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, and other 21st-century skills.

However, the question samples released by NaCCA have a different approach compared to those of WAEC. WAEC’s sample questions only include a preamble and direct questions, whereas NaCCA’s sample questions specifically cater to the critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity skills of examination candidates. This has created some confusion among teachers, heads, and schools since the two samples do not converge, making it difficult for stakeholders to choose which to go with while preparing their candidates.

Schools and teachers should continue to use both direct questions and the new approach, and use WAEC and NaCCA question types as they prepare their candidates.
