WAEC details reasons for WASSCE performance decline
Her comments came shortly after WAEC released the provisional results for the 2025 WASSCE.
The education body expressed concern about a noticeable decline in performance, particularly in core subjects.
The Head of Public Relations at WAEC, John Kapi, provided insights during an interview on Channel One TV.
He explained that Core Mathematics saw the greatest decline. Passes fell from 305,132 in 2024 to 209,068 in 2025.
Watch the TikTok video below.
This resulted in more than ninety-six thousand fewer students achieving marks within the A1 to C6 range.
With a pass rate of only 48.73%, over half of the candidates did not meet the requirements for tertiary education.
Mr Kapi also pointed out several recurring weaknesses observed by examiners.
These included difficulties with diagram interpretation, challenges in solving real-life mathematical problems, issues with translating word problems into mathematical expressions, and struggles with interpreting cumulative frequency data.
He noted that these topics are well covered in the syllabus, making the performance gaps more concerning.
WAEC is expected to present additional findings and recommendations to guide teachers, school heads, and policymakers in preparing students for future examinations.
WASSCE Results: Government orders comprehensive investigation

Speaking at the launch of the STEMBox initiative, he acknowledged the troubling results and called for immediate action.
He tasked the Minister of Education, Haruna Iddrisu, with conducting a thorough review of the examiner reports to identify the causes of the decline.
