Ghana is set to resume its participation in the international West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) from 2026, according to the Ministry of Education.
This was disclosed by Deputy Minister of Education, Dr. Clement Apaak, during the 74th annual council meeting of the West African Examinations Council held in Accra.
He explained that the decision follows directives from President John Dramani Mahama and Vice President Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang.
“The move will enable Ghana to join other member states in administering the 2026 WASSCE under the WAEC framework,” he stated.
He also emphasized the Ministry’s commitment to maintaining high standards in the examination process, noting that it will continue to collaborate closely with WAEC to protect the credibility and integrity of the exams.
The international WASSCE had been suspended in March 2020 following the outbreak of COVID-19, as governments introduced measures to limit the spread of the virus.
