Very Reverend Sam Nii Nmai Ollenu, Head of National Office of WAEC, disclosed this in Accra at a news briefing to release the provisional results for the May/June 2015 WASSCE.
He said a total of 268,812 candidates took the examination for 810 participating schools, which represented 11% higher than the 2014 candidature of 242,164.
He said the results of 119 schools have been withheld whilst investigations into alleged mass cheating in the objective test were identified with the aid of the new anti-malpractice software.
He explained that 453 candidates who sat for the May/June exams across the country had their entire results cancelled for examination malpractices.
The council noted that 1,859 candidates had their subject results cancelled while eight candidates had their entire results cancelled and have been barred from taking any of the council’s examinations for two years.
Very Rev Ollenu urged candidates to access their results online on the council’s website.
Very Rev Ollenu said the council has introduced interventions such as the item differentia profile, the biometric registration of candidates, the use of metal detectors and the use of G-Type answer booklets to address examination malpractices.
