Oyo State government has announced a shift in the Common Entrance examination into its schools of science from Wednesday 19th August to Tuesday 1st, September, 2020.
The shift was announced by the State Ministry of Education, Science and Technology on Tuesday August 18, 2020.
According to the Commissioner for Education, Barrister Olasunkanmi Olaleye, the shift was because of a clash of the examination date with the ongoing West African School Certificate Examination.
Also, the date of the screening test for placement of pupils in terminal classes in public and private primary schools into Junior Secondary School 1(JSS1) in Oyo State has been shifted from Thursday 20th August 2020 to Saturday 22nd August, 2020 due to another clash of the date of the exercise with another WAEC subject.
“All parents and guidance are advised to note these changes and prepare their wards for the exercise at the stipulated periods with strict compliance with the State’s covid-19 protocols,” the Commissioner advised.
