Previously announced to be released timely on January 19, 2023, the date to release the 2022 BECE for School and Private Candidates results online have been extended from January 19 through to January 21, 2023.

In a discussion monitored by AcademicWeek, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Education, Kwasi Kwarteng said the West African Examinations Council has given January 19 to January 21, 2023, as a deadline to release the BECE results.

“God willing within the 19th to 21st of January 2023, we are hopefully expecting the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) to release the 2022 Basic Education Certificate Examination results,” the Moe Public Relations Officer said.

Ahead of the release of the BECE results, the Ghana Education Service has opened a portal https://csspsverify.com for students who sat for the 32nd edition of the national examination to verify and confirm their school selection choices.
