LAGOS STATE EXAMINATIONS BOARD RESCHEDULES Y2026 PLACEMENT TEST TO JULY 28th

The Lagos State Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education, through the Lagos State Examinations Board (LSEB), has announced the rescheduling of the Year 2026 Placement Test from Saturday, 25th July, 2026, to Tuesday, 28th July, 2026.

Announcing the development, the Registrar of the Lagos State Examinations Board, Mr. Adebayo Orunsolu, explained that the adjustment became necessary following the realisation that the earlier scheduled date coincides with the Monthly Environmental Sanitation Exercise, which is observed on the last Saturday of every month across Lagos State.

Mr. Orunsolu noted that the restriction of movement during the sanitation exercise would significantly affect the smooth movement of candidates, parents, guardians, and examination personnel to designated examination centres across the State.

He stated that the Board, in the interest of all stakeholders and to ensure the seamless conduct of the examination, has therefore approved Tuesday, 28th July, 2026, as the new date for the Placement Test.

The Registrar appealed to parents, guardians, school administrators, and candidates to take note of the revised date and make the necessary adjustments accordingly.

He also assured all stakeholders that every necessary arrangement has been put in place to ensure the successful, transparent, and hitch-free conduct of the Placement Test.

While expressing regret for any inconvenience the change may occasion, Mr. Orunsolu thanked all stakeholders for their understanding, cooperation, and continued support.

The Lagos State Examinations Board remains committed to upholding the highest standards of integrity, efficiency, and excellence in the administration of public examinations in the State.
