The Director of Early Childhood and Care Education at the Ghana Education Service (GES), Madam Adiza Tassa, has urged BECE supervisors and invigilators to uphold honesty and integrity as the 2025 examination continues across the country.

She made the call during a tour of examination centres in the Atebubu-Amantin Municipality of the Bono East Region.

During her visit to various centres in Atebubu, Madam Tassa engaged candidates, supervisors, and invigilators, urging them to avoid any actions that could compromise the integrity of the examination.

She also advised candidates to resist the temptation of engaging in examination malpractices, encouraging them to remain focused and do their best.

Madam Tassa reminded the candidates that the BECE served as a gateway to the next stage of their academic journey, stressing that violating examination regulations could jeopardize their eligibility for the government’s Free Senior High School programme.

Expressing optimism about the candidates’ preparation levels, she wished them success in their examinations.

According to data from the Municipal Education Directorate, a total of 2,224 candidates from 85 schools—comprising 52 public and 33 private institutions—are sitting for the BECE across nine centres in the municipality. The group includes 1,085 males and 1,139 females.
