The National Examinations Council (NECO) has approved more schools outside Nigeria to take part in its exams.
These include the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) and the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).
NECO explained that this decision is part of its plan to expand and make its services available globally. The newly approved schools are in Niger Republic and Equatorial Guinea, adding to schools already accredited in other countries.
Azeez Sani, Acting Head of Information and Public Relations, shared this in a statement on Saturday.
“The accreditation team inspected classrooms, laboratories, libraries, computer laboratories, workshops, examination halls, and sports facilities to determine their adequacy and suitability for NECO examinations,” he said.

The team inspected facilities like classrooms, libraries, laboratories, examination halls, and sports areas to ensure they meet NECO’s standards. After thorough checks, the schools were granted full approval for both SSCE and BECE.
NECO stated that accrediting more foreign schools shows its commitment to improving education beyond Nigeria. It aims to become one of Africa’s top examination bodies, giving students in different countries access to quality exams and boosting education across the continent.
In a related update, Mr. Sani mentioned that students are already sitting for the ongoing NECO SSCE External in Diffa, Niger Republic. The UNHCR School in Diffa is the first external exam center outside Nigeria.
NECO exams are now available to students in several countries, including Benin Republic, Togo, Cote d’Ivoire, Niger Republic, Equatorial Guinea, and Saudi Arabia.
