The National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT) has called for investigations into the recent leakage of WASSCE exam questions and details of examiners.
President of the Association, Angel Carbonu said the trend is worrying and a compromise on the security and safety of examiners [whose names have been leaked alongside the papers], therefore, perpetrators must be fished out and brought to book.
"It's a very worrying development and a scale-up of the malfeasance that bedevils our examination in this pandemic," he told Evans Mensah on Joy News' Top Story show.
"First it is leakage of questions, then the circulation of false questions on social media that was disturbing the psyche and the preparation of our students and some of them also leaked as a matter of fact.
"Then this time, to our shock and surprise, names of examiners, some of whom in schools are very discreet because of the type of job that they do have now been put in the public domain," he said.
He stated that leakage of exam questions has been one of the challenges the education community has faced in a long time, however, the leakage of names of examiners is very shocking.
"This is absolutely very disturbing and it compromise even the security of these examiners. I think that there should be a state investigation, into this situation and the culprit will have to be brought to book," he added.
