BECE
Basic Education Certificate Examination
End of JSS 3
Marks the end of junior secondary and determines progression into senior secondary.
Assessment
How students are assessed
Continuous assessment through the year, internal examinations each term, and structured preparation for the national examinations.
Every stage at GFA is assessed continuously — class work, homework, projects and tests feed a termly report. Formal internal examinations are sat at the end of each term, and results determine promotion to the next class.
Preparing for the national examinations
From JSS 3 onward, preparation is deliberate: past-question practice, timed mock examinations, and focused revision in the terms leading up to each external sitting.
The external examinations
WAEC (WASSCE)
West African Senior School Certificate Examination
SSS 3
The primary school-leaving certificate, recognised across West Africa and for university entry.
NECO
National Examinations Council
