The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has released the 2026 May/June Senior School Certificate Examination timetable for school candidates. The exam will take place from Tuesday, 7 April 2026, to Friday, 19 June 2026. Candidates from Nigeria, Ghana, Sierra Leone, Liberia, and The Gambia are covered in the schedule.
The timetable uses Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and candidates should note that Nigeria runs on GMT +1. Nigerian candidates should add one hour to every time shown in the timetable. Ghana, Sierra Leone, Liberia, and The Gambia use GMT +0, and candidates in those countries should follow the exact time printed in the timetable.
The WAEC timetable is now available, and candidates are advised to confirm each entry with the WAEC 2026 May/June timetable PDF.
The release of the WAEC timetable is a crucial step for Nigerian students preparing for the May/June WASSCE. One concrete implication is that students and teachers now have a clear schedule to plan their revision and examination preparation.
