This year, 3,036 students have registered for the Basic Education Certificate Examination within our ministry, with over 1,600 being female and 1,400 plus being male. It is particularly encouraging to note that more girls have enrolled for the exams, which is a positive trend. We have adequately prepared them.
Over the past month, we have conducted numerous sessions in the municipality to prepare the students for the exams, and I am confident that they are well-prepared for the exams. We anticipate excellent results. We have groomed them effectively, and regarding exam malpractice and the rules and regulations governing these exams, they are well-informed. Through comprehensive training and personal motivation, I have ensured that they understand the rules and regulations.”
