2026 NECO BECE Approved Timetable

There is a conversation we need to have, and it requires honesty and balance.

Over the years, there has been a strong and necessary push to give girls equal opportunity. That effort is paying off. In many of our schools today, girls are excelling in academics, showing discipline, and stepping confidently into leadership roles. This is progress we should all be proud of, and it must never be rolled back.

At the same time, there is a growing concern that we are not paying equal attention to the development of boys.

In many classrooms, the gap is becoming clear. A number of boys are losing the drive to strive. The culture around them often rewards quick wins, online validation, and shortcuts over patience, discipline, and long-term effort. Left unchecked, this creates young men who are less prepared for responsibility, competition, and leadership.

This is not about placing one gender above the other. It is about balance.

Strong societies are built when both boys and girls are raised with purpose. When one side advances and the other drifts, the long-term effects show up in families, workplaces, and communities. The same girls who are excelling today will one day seek partners who can match them in character, discipline, and ambition. If we do not invest in raising boys who are grounded and intentional, we create a mismatch that affects everyone.

As a father, this is personal. I am proud of the growth, confidence, and promise I see in girls today. At the same time, I think about the kind of men they will meet in the future. That question should concern all of us.

So the call is simple.

Let us keep pushing for the continued rise of girls. But alongside that, let us be deliberate about raising boys who can stand well. Boys who value effort, who can delay gratification, who understand responsibility, and who are ready to lead and to serve.

We do not lift one by neglecting the other. We build both, intentionally.

Ghanaian students have taken the spotlight in the 2025 WASSCE results after producing the top three candidates in West Africa. The announcement was made during the 74th WAEC Annual Council Meeting held in Accra, where over 2.6 million candidates across five countries participated.

Miss Huda Suleman emerged as the overall best candidate, winning the Augustus Bandele Oyediran Award, followed by Paula Suwo and Matthea Aba Andoh — all from Ghana — marking a strong academic showing for the country. 🎓🌍

13 Days to Go: A Message to All UTME Candidates

Dear Students,

We trust this message finds you all well.

As you enjoy the short break before extension classes resume. Use it well. This is not idle time. It is a window to reset, refocus, and close the gaps that still remain.

In just 13 days, you will sit for the 2026 JAMB UTME. That date is fixed. What remains flexible is your level of preparation.

Let me be clear with you. A score above 300 is not reserved for a special group of students. It is earned by those who prepare with intention, consistency, and discipline.

Why This Matters

First, competition is real. For courses like Medicine, Engineering, and other high-demand fields, thousands apply for a limited number of spaces. Strong scores place you in a different category. They give you options.

Second, performance builds belief. When you prepare well and see the result, your confidence grows. That confidence carries into Post-UTME, into university, and beyond.

Third, strong results open doors. Scholarships, recognitions, and opportunities often follow students who have shown academic strength early.

What You Must Do Now

1. Settle Your Mind
Fear will not help you. Preparation will. Replace doubt with action. Remind yourself daily of what you are working toward. Your future is not vague. It is taking shape right now.

2. Work with a Clear Plan
Do not read randomly. Structure your day.
Focus on at least two subjects daily.

Combine content review with practice questions

Track what you have covered and what still needs attention. Check the syllabus. Its online.

A simple, consistent plan will outperform scattered effort.

3. Increase Your Study Time
At this stage, light reading will not be enough. You need depth and repetition.

Aim for several focused hours each day. Break your time into sessions. Rest briefly, then return with full attention. Quality matters, but quantity also plays a role now. Between 4 to 6 hours daily is the prescribed minimum.

4. Control Distractions
You already know what pulls your attention away. Reduce it.

Your phone, social media, and entertainment should not compete with your goals at this point. Discipline now will save you from regret later.

5. Study Actively
Do not just read. Engage.

Write key points as you study

Summarize topics in your own words

Test yourself often

When you write and recall, you remember better.

6. Face Your Weak Areas
It is tempting to avoid difficult topics. Do the opposite.

Spend more time on what you find challenging. Ask questions. Use different resources. Growth happens there.

7. Practice with Purpose

Past questions are not optional. They are essential.

They show patterns. They train your speed. They expose your gaps. Practice under timed conditions so the exam environment feels familiar.

8. Strengthen Your Memory

Review regularly. Go over your notes during quiet moments. Repetition fixes knowledge in place.

9. Take Care of Yourself

Sleep matters. Food matters. Short breaks matter.

You cannot think clearly if you are exhausted. Keep your body steady so your mind can perform.

10. Keep Your Faith Steady

Many draw strength from their faith. Hold on to that. Ask for clarity, discipline, and calmness as you prepare. Commit your studied to God's hands.

This period will pass quickly. What will remain is your result and the choices it allows you to make.

Use these 13 days wisely. Stay focused. Stay disciplined. Stay hopeful.

We believe in your capacity to rise to this moment.

Finish strong.

Things are truly getting out of hand.
