The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has officially released the provisional results for the 2024 West Africa Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).



 In a statement, the Council announced that heads of schools will receive login details to access their candidates&#8217; results.



The results are available online, and candidates can check their performance by visiting WAEC&#8217;s official website at <a href="http://www.waecgh.org">www.waecgh.org</a>. 



WAEC has warned stakeholders to be cautious of fraudsters who may attempt to exploit candidates by offering to upgrade results for a fee.



WAEC emphasized that the results are secure and can be authenticated using the Council&#8217;s results verification system. A QR code is available for candidates to download and use for verification purposes.



Following investigations into irregularities during the examination, WAEC has canceled the subject results of 4,108 candidates for bringing unauthorized materials, such as prepared notes and textbooks, into the examination halls. 



Additionally, the entire results of 483 candidates have been annulled due to possession of mobile phones during the exams. 



The subject results of 781 candidates and the entire results of 209 others have been withheld for various suspected offenses, while some subject results from 319 schools are also under review for alleged collusion.



The release of the results on December 30 follows a delay attributed to outstanding debts owed by the government, which WAEC indicated had been hampering its operations. 



As of December 26, the government had disbursed GH₵85 million to partially settle the GH₵118 million owed to the Council.



A total of 460,611 candidates, comprising 212,954 males and 247,657 females from 1,003 schools, registered for the examination, marking a 2.66% increase from the 2023 entry figure of 448,674. Notably, 4,609 candidates (1.0%) were absent from the examination.
