Concerns raised over delay in CSEC exams at Santa Rosa

Parents and students of the Santa Rosa Secondary School are worried that they may be penalised by the Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC) after delays saw them writing the Agricultural Science Paper 2 yesterday afternoon instead of yesterday morning.

A parent of a fifth form student of the school told Stabroek News yesterday that her daughter contacted her after ten, distraught that the papers for the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) exams had not yet arrived at the school.

Owing to this delay the examination which was to begin at 9 am, did not commence until 12.45 pm.
