The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has released the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) 2022 results. WAEC, in a statement on Wednesday, said that candidates who participated in the examination can now check their result online.

Candidates who so desire can access their results at the Council’s official website www.waecgh.org.

“Following a request from the Ghana Education Service (GES), the results of 8,486 candidates who failed to return learning support materials supplied to them and/or destroyed school property cannot be accessed online at the Council’s website.

“The affected candidates are advised to visit their schools for their results,” WAEC said in a statement.

The subject results of 3,845 candidates have been canceled for sending foreign material into the examination hall.

Candidates who brought mobile phones into the examination hall, or were involved in cases of impersonation detected during the examination, will have their results canceled. Personal marks and combined marks of some 518 candidates were cancelled after their cellphones were caught by the examination invigilators.

The entire results of some 117 candidates were withheld pending the conclusion of investigations into alleged cases of impersonation detected during the examination.

The scripts of some other candidates from 179 schools in certain subjects are being scrutinized for reported cases of collusion.

A total of 422,883 candidates from 977 schools registered for this year’s WASSCE.

The figure included 72 candidates with visual impairment, made up of 39 males and 33 females, as well as 14 candidates with hearing impairment.
