General News of Sunday, 24 March 2019Source: Myjoyonline.comNo conspiracy in law school exams – Akufo-AddoPresident Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-AddoPresident Akufo-Addo has commented on the issue of the massive student failure at the Ghana School of Law saying it could be as a result of non-adherence to examination directions. Lecturers of the Ghana School of Law last month clashed with the General Legal Council (GLC) over the administration of examinations at the law school. The 2018 results, which are the worst in the history of the law school, saw as many as 284 out of 450 students failing in the professional law examinations. The Independent Examination Committee, the examiners, operates separately from the lecturers – a system some lawyers and law lecturers have criticised as problematic. The law lecturers want the General Legal Council to cause the Independent Examination Committee to take a second look at questions in the 2018 exams which were not within the manuals.
