Sierra Leone's Education Minister, Conrad Sackey, is scheduled to reveal the results of the 2023 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) on Monday, October 2, 2023. Administered by the West African Examinations Council (WAEC), the WASSCE is undertaken by third-year Senior High School students and private candidates alike. This examination serves a dual purpose: to determine eligibility for tertiary education and to certify the completion of secondary education.
In May of this year, a total of 243,000 students sat for the 2023 WASSCE in Sierra Leone. This group consisted of 115,033 males and 128,170 females. While there may be a slight delay in the Ministry of Basic and Senior Secondary Education (MBSSE) dispatching the results to individual schools, candidates can promptly access their scores online or through the MBSSE SMS result checker.
