The Ministry of Basic and Senior Secondary Education has explained why over 7,000 students were left out on the West African Senior School Certificate Examinations (WASSCE).
The Ministry said this was as a result of the school principals failure to upload eligible candidates for the 2023 exams.
According to the ministry, the entry portal officially closed on the 31st March, but as a result of numerous engagements with the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) International, they were able to persuade them for an extension of the portal to April.

The Ministry has pleaded with affected candidates to exercise patience and put their trust in them as they find solutions to the issue.
