The National Examinations Council (NECO) has shifted its 2020 Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) – External examination by one week.
The exams were scheduled previously to commence on February 1 and end on March 3, but will now start on February 8 and end on March 10.
The examination council announced the new date after requests by candidates to be given more time to complete the registration.
In a statement by the Head, Information and Public Relations Division, Azeez Sani, the council told candidates who missed some papers during the 2020 SSCE (Internal) due to the EndSARS protests in some states to take note of these new dates and report for the examination accordingly at their various examination centres to be designated.
