Hinterland students not ready for ministry’s July exams – APA

The Amerindian Peoples’ Association (APA) yesterday urged that hinterland students get “constructive redress” before sitting exams in July since these students have had little or no access to learning for almost three months.

Following the Ministry of Education’s decision to go ahead with administering the National Grade Six Assessment (NGSA), Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) and Carib-bean Advanced Proficiency Examinations (CAPE) next month, the Amerindian Peoples Association released a statement where it touched on concerns about indigenous and hinterland students who have been “heavily” impacted by the repercussions of the COVID 19 outbreak in Guyana.
