CSEC/CAPE exams for today, tomorrow shifted
New dates set for June
Even as the country turns out to the polls today to vote for a new government, the Ministry of Education is reminding CSEC and CAPE students of shifts in exams due to a clash with General and Regional Elections.
The shift in dates had been approved by the Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC) after Guyana had sought permission for a change following the announcement of elections earlier this year.
At least a dozen exams for CSEC and CAPE were shifted to June 15 and June 16.
However, though the Guyanese candidates will be conducting their exams at the later date, The Education Ministry assured that their results will be available at the same time as the rest of the region.
“Students will not be disadvantaged in any way as the paper will be similarly weighted or parallel,” the Ministry emphasised.
According to a Ministry of Education advisory, the new exams schedules are as follows:
CSEC exams scheduled for June 15: 9:00hrs: Agricultural Science (double award) – Paper 2, Agricultural Science (Single award) – Paper 2, Theatre Arts – Paper 1; and at 13:00hrs: Electrical and Electronic Technology – Paper 1 and Food and Nutrition – Paper 2.
CAPE exams scheduled for June 15: 9:00hrs: Geometrical & Mechanical Engineering Drawing Unit 1- Paper 2; History Unit 1 – Paper 2; Art & Design Unit 1& 2- Paper 2 & 3; and at 13:00hrs: Communications Studies -Paper-2
CSEC exams scheduled for June 16: 9:00hrs: Home Economics: Management – Paper 2, and Technical Drawing – Paper 2; and at 1:00pm: Electrical and Electronic Technology – Paper 2.
