An announcement by the GCE Board has asked media organs wishing to publish this year's GCE results to contact the Board. The announcement by the Registrar of the Board, Humphrey Monono on state media suggests that soft copies of the results will be made available to interested media upon payment of a specified sum, but hard copies won't be available.
Anxiety already ran high the other day when unverified information on social media suggested the results had been released.
Parents and candidates have been even more anxious over whether the results will be immediately accessible.
Last year, the results were only available to selected mobile telephone networks. This method has been heavily criticised. It is unclear however whether in addition to giving the results to the media, mobile phone companies will still be privvy to them.
Problems with phone network signals left most parents and candidates queuing at windows of private business places which had acquired the results to buy them.
The release of GCE results usually spurs up frenzy amongst parents and candidates who usually cannot bat an eyelid until they access the results.
Clearly, the decision by the GCE Board to now make the results available to the media after it had stopped doing so for some years now means the results could be more widely available this year than before.
