Where things stand
Mathematics Paper 1 is written on 4 November 2026
Results are expected around late January 2027
“Expected” means exactly that — based on recent years. ECZ announces the real date, and this page will carry it.
Three ways to check
- 1
The e-Statement portal
Go to the ECZ portal at systems.exams-council.org.zm, open “e-Statement of Results”, choose Candidate Sign In, select your examination level and follow the prompts. You can view and print your statement in minutes.
- 2
By SMS
The ECZ SMS service runs on Airtel, MTN and Zamtel (about K4 per successful reply). Results usually reach SMS at release before the portal traffic clears.
- 3
At your school
Schools receive the results for their own candidates. If the portal is jammed on release day — it usually is, briefly — your school has them.
What you receive
- School Certificate
- Awarded when your passes meet the certificate rules — the full qualification, the one colleges and employers ask for.
- Statement of Results
- A record of the grades you earned when the certificate rules were not met. It is not the end of the road — it tells you exactly which subjects to retake.
Retaking Mathematics? The GCE route
GCE lets you rewrite individual subjects without repeating the year. The Mathematics is the same syllabus — and G12 Titan carries ten years of real GCE papers, every question with a verified worked solution, so your preparation starts the day you decide.
G12 Titan is not the Examinations Council of Zambia and does not issue results. This page explains ECZ’s own channels, so you can use them without the release-day scramble.
