WAEC finally released the 2024 WASSCE results on December 30 after a delay caused by government debts.

Exam cheating led to the cancellation of the subject results of 4,108 candidates.

Subject results of 781 and the full results of 209 candidates have been withheld for various suspected offences, while the results of candidates from 319 schools have been withheld for alleged collusion.

Going into December 2024, WAEC was owed GH¢118 million by the government, which hampered its operations.

Though the WASSCE results were supposed to be released between December 9, 2024, and December 15, 2024, WAEC had not started marking the objectives after this deadline.
