Three candidates Monday morning turned up pregnant to take part in the ongoing Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) in the Western region.
The three students are among over Seven thousand candidates writing the BECE in the Sekondi-Takoradi.
This was revealed by Western regional director of education Enyonam Amefugah during her visit to four examination centers.
Three (3) were also absent because they had traveled outside the country while one was deceased.
Meanwhile, 72 out of 73 final year students in Denkyira-Obuasi in the Central region turned up for the first paper of the ongoing Basic Education Examination.
The other person who could not make it to the centre according to authorities had already been absenting himself from class two months prior to the murder of Captain Maxwell Mahama’s in the area.
Central regional director of the Ghana Education service David Afram in an interview with Starr News’ Central regional correspondent Kwaku Baah-Acheamfour pledged the commitment of the educational directorate in taking good care of students even as they go through the exams.
