<p>The West African Examination Council (<strong><a target="_blank" href="http://Gistreel.com/tag/Waec">WAEC</a></strong>) has reported banned about 574 schools in Nigeria for conducting the 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), scheduled to begin on Thursday, April 24.</p>
<p>The announcement was made by Dr Amos Dangut, Head of WAEC’s National Office, while briefing reporters at the head office at Yaba.</p>
<p>According to him, these schools have been banned because of multiple incidents of <strong>examination malpractice</strong> in the previous years.</p>
<p><em>“This year, we have shared with the government a total of 574 schools that have had their recognition withdrawn. These schools had their licences revoked due to misconduct during previous examinations.”</em></p>
<p><em>“As far as WAEC is concerned, these schools no longer exist for the purpose of conducting our exams,” </em>he stated.</p>
<p>Dr Amos Dangut disclosed that the banning of the schools is as a result of the breech of the guidelines of WAEC and also to curb examination malpractice in schools.</p>
<p>WAEC, Dangut said, would continue to collaborate with both state and federal education bodies to enforce disciplinary measures across all tiers of education.</p>
<p>“<em>It is not enough to sanction the students or invigilators. The schools themselves must be held accountable for systemic malpractice,”</em> Dangut asserted.</p>
