The Lagos State Examinations Board has fixed Oct. 6, as the new date for the 2022 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) resit.
This is contained in a statement signed by Mr Orunsolu Adebayo, Director, Lagos State Examinations Board, on Wednesday in Lagos.
The statement noted that the examination earlier scheduled for Sept. 28, had been postponed to the new date.
It, however, said that the resit would still take place in various designated centres across the state.
The statement said that the postponement became necessary to accommodate schools that had yet to register their candidates for the resit examination.
“The Board does not wish to deny the affected candidates the opportunity of taking the examination,” it added.
It urged concerned principals to take note of the new and make best use of the extended date to ensure that all affected candidates were duly carried along.
