Baby Brought into Exam Hall for Breastfeeding During BECE
An image circulating on social media has attracted significant public attention during the ongoing Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE). The image, which appeared on X on May 6, 2026, captures an unexpected interruption during the Integrated Science paper in the Krachi East District.
In the scene, the examination process was briefly disrupted when a baby began crying inside the examination hall. The infant had been brought in to be cared for by a candidate who is a nursing mother. The situation led to a short pause in the examination as attention shifted to the child.
The image further shows an invigilator engaging a young female student who had carried the baby into the hall on behalf of the nursing mother. The interaction appears to focus on managing the situation in line with examination regulations while ensuring calm is restored for the continuation of the paper.
After the image surfaced online, it generated a wide range of public reactions. Some individuals expressed concern about the increasing incidence of teenage pregnancy and its impact on education. Others, however, highlighted the determination and resilience of the young mother, commending her commitment to continue sitting for the examination despite the challenges she was facing.
The incident has since contributed to broader discussions online about student welfare, examination conditions, and the realities faced by some candidates during national assessments.
