One hundred and fifty-one pupils paid 500 cedis each to a proprietor who collected 75,000 cedis. But the school head in his late 30's only registered 75 final-year students and allegedly pocketed 38,000 cedis. The 76 unregistered pupils were directed to check their index numbers last Sunday at the examination center where the 2018 BECE was expected to take place Monday. The accused took money from other pupils and registered them in the name of the school.
