The 2016 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) by the West African Examination Council (WAEC) has ended successfully nationwide.
Interacting with Univers’ News David Nii Lartey, some Junior High School leavers at the St. Andrews Basic School mentioned that they were delighted they had successfully completed their Junior High school education. Some students were also confident of getting their first choice school, further describing their exams as a huge success.
The 2016 BECE results are expected to be released in two months to enable candidates get access into Senior High School to start the academic year in September.
The exams which started on Monday June 13 2016, had some challenges as some candidates in a school in Tema were reported have a mix-up with their index numbers. Pregnant candidates were also allowed to sit for the examinations.
