Education Minister, Betty Mould Iddrisu will lead a team of educationalists on Monday morning to monitor the exams at some selected canters in the Accra metropolis.

Public Relations Officer for the Ghana Education Service, Charles Parker Allotey told Citi News all is set for the exams.

He urged the candidates to comport themselves and avoid any form of examination malpractice in the Exams hall.

“We have had word from the West African Exams Council that everything is on course and therefore they are ready to roll…we from the Ghana Education Service would want to tell our children that they should be confident when they go into the room. We also want to tell them that there should be no cheating because cheating is not good”.
