Following completion of investigations into some of the cases of irregularity reported during the conduct of the examination, the Ghana Examinations Committee, at its Meeting held on Wednesday, November 17, 2025, approved as follows:
1. Cancellation of Subject Results of 6,295 candidates for bringing foreign material like prepared notes, text books, and printed material into the examination halls;

Yet still, some subject results of candidates from 185 schools have been withheld for alleged collusion. These cases are still under investigation. We are working around the clock to ensure that the withheld results of these candidates are published before the end of December, 2025 depending on the outcome of investigations.School supplies
Additionally, a total of 35 persons, 19 of whom are teachers were found to have engaged in acts that compromised the integrity of the examination. So far 19 of them have been arraigned before court and have been convicted to fines or terms of imprisonment.
