BECE Resit: Lagos postpones junior WAEC to October 6
The Lagos examinations board has fixed October 6 as the new date for the 2022 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) resit.
This is contained in a statement signed by Orunsolu Adebayo, the director of the exams board, on Wednesday in Lagos.
The statement noted that the examination earlier scheduled for today (Wednesday), was postponed to the new date.
It, however, said the resit would still take place in various designated centres across the state.
The statement said the postponement became necessary to accommodate schools who had yet to register their candidates for the resit examination.
“The board does not wish to deny the affected candidates the opportunity of taking the examination,” it added.
It urged principals to take note of the new date and make best use of the extended date to ensure that all candidates were duly carried along.
