VI Government to foot CXC bill for next two years - Hon. Walwyn
The Minister for Education and Culture, Hon. Myron V. Walwyn in a released speech, stated “To ensure that all students receive a fair chance at writing the CXC’s CSEC [Caribbean Secondary Examination Certificate] examinations, the Ministry of Education and Culture will cover the costs for examinations over the next two years.”
“This I hope demonstrates the importance of our students taking these exams and the investment I believe is necessary to ensure the success of our students and the success of these Virgin Islands.”
Hon. Walwyn took into consideration that there are fourth form students writing the exams and if they are capable, then those who are in fifth form, who are more advanced, should be successful.
“The Ministry of Education and Culture realizes that change is never instant; we realize that there may be setbacks or resistance to such an endeavour, however, we are committed and will stand fast to ensure that our students are given the same opportunities for educational success as their counterparts throughout the region”.
