The Ghana Education Service (GES) has issued a stern warning to teachers and invigilators to refrain from engaging in examination malpractices or assisting students during the 2025 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).
According to the institution, it will take drastic measures against anyone found culpable, including the possibility of dismissals. "Invigilators and supervisors who are caught aiding exam malpractice will be severely punished and I must say that it might cost them their job because we want good role models," the GES warned.
Speaking at a press briefing on Monday, June 9, 2025, the Director-General of the GES, Professor Ernest Kofi Davis, highlighted the dangers associated with examination malpractices.
He stated that students who cheat to achieve impressive results significantly undermine the education system, as it becomes difficult to accurately assess its performance.
