Waec announce new penalties for exam malpractices
I'm not aware of any recent announcement from the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) regarding new penalties for exam malpractices. However, I can provide you with some general information on the penalties for exam malpractices in WAEC exams.
According to WAEC's regulations, candidates who engage in exam malpractices can face the following penalties:
- Automatic Failing: Candidates who are found to have engaged in exam malpractices will automatically fail the affected subject(s) or the entire examination.
- Disqualification: Candidates who are found to have engaged in severe exam malpractices may be disqualified from the examination altogether.
- Suspension: Candidates who are found to have engaged in exam malpractices may be suspended from taking future WAEC exams.
- Criminal Prosecution: Candidates who are found to have engaged in severe exam malpractices may be prosecuted under the laws of the country.
It's worth noting that WAEC takes exam malpractices very seriously and has a zero-tolerance policy towards such behavior. The council has implemented various measures to prevent and detect exam malpractices, including the use of biometric technology, CCTV cameras, and strict supervision of examination centers.
If you're looking for information on specific penalties for exam malpractices in WAEC exams, I recommend checking the WAEC website or contacting the council directly for more information.
