Teaser: The WASSCE 2025 Results Ghana didn’t just collapse; they exposed the unofficial curriculum our students have been faithfully studying: TikTok routines, tablet mischief, Snapchat fellowship, and advanced electives in academic shortcuts. The numbers tell one story, but the Republic of Uncommon Sense is here to tell the one the system has been hiding.

Dear Citizens,
How WASSCE 2025 Results Exposed Ghana’s Real Curriculum
WASSCE 2025 Results Ghana — once upon a time in the Republic of Uncommon Sense, our WASSCE results glowed like a politician’s smile on a fresh campaign poster — polished, bright, and suspiciously perfect. For years, the grades rose like steam from hot tuo zaafi, rising even in schools where textbooks were rarer than affordable housing and laboratories were as mythical as dragons in Aburi Gardens.
Parents jubilated, teachers exhaled, politicians waved graphs like victory flags, and students behaved like future Nobel laureates who had finally broken free from generational academic bondage.
Then came 2024 and 2025 — two years that marched into our educational system like unexpected in-laws during mealtime, forcing us to reveal everything we had hidden under the bed. WAEC suddenly remembered it had a spine. It shut down the channels through which exam leaks used to flow, locked the backdoor, and sent the pre-release syndicates on early retirement.
Immediately, the spiritual Wi-Fi powering our illicit exam culture went off. And the results began whispering proverbs only the bold could interpret: “If you refuse to learn, the exam will show you pepper.”
Core Mathematics plunged from 66.86% to 48.73% like a collapsing galamsey pit. Social Studies dropped to 55.82% as if it too had surrendered to gravity.
WAEC, calm as a crocodile basking in shallow waters, announced with a straight face: 6,295 subject results cancelled, 653 entire results erased, and 35 suspects — including 19 teachers — marched to court for creative academic corruption.
The nation convulsed.
Parents produced doctoral theses on WhatsApp. Students accused WAEC of witchcraft. Prophets on social media declared that the trumpet was warming up.
Tablets, TikTok and the New “Syllabus”
But before the crowd could storm WAEC’s gates, the Education Minister stepped forward with revelations fit for a Greek tragedy. Government-issued tablets, meant for e-learning, had been transformed into portable adult-content cinemas. What was designed for algebra had become a venue for anatomy — the wrong kind.
As if that were not enough, rumours swirled louder than trotro gossip that students were spending entire nights on TikTok, Snapchat, Instagram Reels and every viral challenge known to humankind. Some students knew 60 TikTok dances but could not define “synonym.” Others could edit videos with Hollywood finesse but couldn’t analyse a simple passage in English.
Teachers whispered privately that students were now majoring in TikTok, minoring in Snapchat, and doing elective courses in late-night promiscuity. Some knew all the trending “talent shows” on their phones but none of the formulas in their maths sets.
So by the time the exam arrived, many candidates were academically unprepared but socially very experienced.

NAGRAT, WAEC and the Vocabulary Funeral
Enter NAGRAT.
Angel Carbonu, President of NAGRAT, with the serenity of a headmaster who has supervised generations of mischief, declared he was not surprised at all. To him, the WASSCE 2025 Results Ghana simply reflected what students had actually learned — or what they had enthusiastically avoided learning.
He blamed a collapsing system: double-track chaos, unpredictable calendars, evaporating instructional hours, vanished discipline, and classrooms overcrowded to the point where mosquitoes needed booking numbers.
Then WAEC itself added fresh seasoning to the soup.
On JoyFM’s Super Morning Show, Mr. John Kapi, WAEC’s Director of Public Affairs, revealed that many students could barely use basic English vocabulary. Synonyms confused them. Expression collapsed. Text analysis warred with comprehension. They could read — but understanding was optional.
For official statements and further updates, WAEC’s notices can be found at waecgh.org.
Leaks may have lifted past results, yes — but a deeper rot had been quietly growing: weakened vocabulary, dying comprehension, social media addiction, tablet misuse, and distractions that turned learning into a side hustle.
Understanding the WASSCE 2025 Results Ghana Debate
One camp insisted the results were the naked truth walking boldly through Kaneshie market, finally exposing the fantasies inflated by years of leaked papers.
Another camp — NAGRAT’s camp — argued that students had the potential, but the environment had sabotaged them. Free SHS brought opportunities; the collapsing system brought disaster.
Then came the wise but unpopular middle group: the ones who whispered that past results were inflated, present results were sabotaged, and the current generation was distracted beyond measure.
Whichever camp one joins, the mirror refuses to lie.
Ghana now has:
✔️ a cheating problem
✔️ a learning problem
✔️ a distraction problem
✔️ a discipline problem
✔️ and a vocabulary problem.
Illicit exam support may have helped some students glide through WASSCE like azonto dancers, but WAEC has introduced a new rhythm — one that demands real literacy, real comprehension, real focus, and real learning.
The Crossroads: Reform or Repeat
Now the Republic stands at a crossroads.
One path leads to integrity, digital exams, stable calendars, disciplined classrooms, empowered teachers, and a revival of reading and comprehension.
The other path leads to leaked questions, TikTok rehearsals at midnight, Snapchat confessionals, tablet mischief, and disastrous exam results.
As the elders say:
“If you cheat to pass an exam, life will still set its own questions — and no leaked script will come.”
Ghana has seen its reflection — and the mirror didn’t smile back.
Breaking it will not fix the face. Only truth, reform, and real effort can do that.
