i. Teachers should he trained properly in their fields. They will then have the tactics to follow on how to finish the syllabus for a particular term or at least cover a large part of it,
ii. Holidays may be more in number but reduced in length as students are reluctant to resume from long holidays.
iii. Guidance Counselors should be employed in all schools to guide the students on study habits, career prospects and requirement for various careers.
iv. Continuous assessment should be practiced correctly. It will reduce examination malpractices as 40% of marks are accumulated from various assessment techniques such as projects and assignments before actual examinations.
v. The number of invigilators and supervisors should be increased in the exam halls. Exam officers, Vice Principals and Principals should occasionally pay visits to exam halls to observe what is going on. In this way, they could notice any cheating behaviour.
vi. The students should be thoroughly searched before entering the hall. Apart from photographs, finger prints on certificates should he used for identification
as no two persons, even identical twins could have the same finger print. That is
why it is used in crime detection.
In conclusion, solutions are only possible where there are Examination Halls, large classrooms, adequate seats and adequate number of teachers in a school. A class where theft are 150 students sitting on the floor and windows with some armed with knives and locally made pistols, an invigilator will not risk his life to prevent examination malpractice.
The government can play a very big role in curbing this menace by providing enough classrooms, desks and employing qualified teachers. And also, during an examination, the school should ensure that each student gets his/her own question paper and provide enough invigilators.
The Federal government has established an Exam Ethics Committee, all Stale Government and Local Government Councils should do the same thing.

The parent, student and government bodies coordinating the exams, are to be blame.
Students should be blamed for examination malpractice because cheating goes against ethical principles and the values of honesty and integrity. By engaging in malpractice, students undermine the credibility of their education and academic achievements. Additionally, cheating creates an unfair advantage over peers who work hard and study honestly.
Examination malpractice refers to any improper or dishonest conduct before, during, or after an examination that compromises the integrity or fairness of the assessment process. This can include cheating, plagiarism, collusion, impersonation, or any other action aimed at deceiving or gaining an unfair advantage in exams.
Examination malpractice can be caused by factors such as pressure to perform well, lack of ethics, and the perception of exams as a be-all and end-all. Some possible solutions include promoting integrity in education, implementing stricter exam supervision measures, and focusing on a holistic assessment approach rather than relying solely on exams for evaluation. Educating students on the importance of honesty and the consequences of malpractice is also crucial in addressing this issue.
