The National Examinations Council (NECO) says it has not extended the closing date for the 2024 Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) internal registration.

Sani said the registration which started on Monday, Dec.18, 2023 would close on Monday, June 3, 2024.

He, however, said that late registration which attracted late registration fee would take place from Tuesday, June 4 to Monday, June 10.

He enjoined candidates, school principals, commandants, state ministries of education and other stakeholders to disregard social media posts purporting that the internal registration period had been extended to Monday, June 20.

BRANDPPOWER reports that the 2024 SSCE Internal examinations will commence on June 19 and end on July 26.

Candidates will be assessed in 76 subjects during the examination.
