WAEC okays resit examinations

News Update

THE West African Examinations Council, WAEC, has introduced resit examinations for candidates.

This will allow students to resit their West African Senior Secondary Examinations, WASSCE, papers as early as January and February 2025.

It is a significant shift from the previous years, where candidates waited for the next private exam cycle.

The Head of Public Affairs at WAEC, John Kapi, confirmed this while speaking on JoyNews’ AM Show in Ghana.

“Students who access their results now and realise they need to resit one or two papers have until 8th January to register online through our website or at WAEC-accredited internet cafés.

“The exams will take place from 24th January to 15th February 2025,” Kapi said.

He added that students whose results have been cancelled are also eligible to sit the WASSCE PC1 exams, provided they have not been banned for some years for malpractice.
