The Lagos State Government has rescheduled the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) resit for the JSS 3 students in the state.
The resit BECE otherwise known as Junior WAEC was earlier fixed for today, Wednesday, September 28 but now shifted to Thursday, October 6, and is to be held at all the designated centres across the state.
The Director of Lagos State Examinations Board, Mr Adebayo Orunsolu, made the announcement in a statement on Wednesday.
He said the postponement was to give the opportunity to schools that are yet to register their candidates for the resit exam to be able to do so.
He said the board would not want to deny any intending candidate for such an exam.
He, however, urged all the principals that are concerned to take note of the new date and duly inform concerned candidates.
While regretting any inconvenience the postponement might have caused, he said the board counted on the full cooperation of all the stakeholders in the exercise. (Nigerian Tribune)
