NECO BECE Examination Registration Procedure 2024
To apply for the 2024 NECO BECE (Basic Education Certificate Examination), you will follow a series of steps that involve both online and offline registration.
- You will need to download the registration software (BECE Offline Application) from the official NECO website. This software allows schools to register candidates, make payments, and manage the registration process.
- The first step for any school is to set up a center by creating an admin account on the NECO BECE portal. Once this is done, the school can proceed with registering students.
- Schools must input the necessary details for each candidate, including personal information and subject choices. For each candidate, continuous assessment (CA1, CA2) scores for the selected subjects need to be filled out.
- After completing the registration form for each candidate, the next step is uploading the required passport photograph and other supporting documents.
- After candidate details have been submitted, the school needs to make the payment for registration. The amount is based on the number of candidates being registered. Payment can be made through the Remita platform, which provides various payment options.
- Once all candidate information is verified and payment is made, the school can finalize the registration. The system allows the generation of exam numbers and the printing of photo cards for candidates.
- Schools can log into their accounts to view a list of registered candidates, make any necessary edits before final submission, and check for any incomplete applications.
Registration of Candidates With Disabilities
When registering students with disabilities for the NECO BECE examination, schools must ensure that all candidates, including those with special needs, are properly registered and receive any necessary accommodations. The registration process is the same for both candidates, but schools must highlight specific needs during the registration, such as the requirement for braille materials or extra time for candidates with impaired vision disabilities.
Schools should submit medical documentation or proof of the candidate’s condition to ensure the proper accommodations are provided.
