The National Examinations Council (NECO) has fixed new dates for the conduct of the 2020 SSCE external examination. A statement from NECO, signed by the Head of Information and Public Relations Division, Azeez Sani, said the decision was taken to grant the candidates’ requests for more time to complete their registration process for the examination.
Accordingly, the examination, which was earlier scheduled to commence on Monday 1st February, 2021 and end on Wednesday 3rd March, 2021, will now start on Monday 8th February, 2021, and end on Wednesday 10th March, 2021.
The Council also directed 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 at their various examination centers to be designated.
“All candidates are advised to access the revised Examination Time Table on the Council’s website: www.neco.gov.ng”, the statement said.
