NADOWLI/KALEO MP ORGANISES REVISION CLASSES FOR BECE CANDIDATES

 



The Member of Parliament for Nadowli/Kaleo, Hon. Anthony Mwinkaara Sumah in collaboration with the Ghana Education Service in the District has organized snap extra classes for this years BECE candidates in the District. The MP committed a little over thirteen thousand Ghana cedis to cater for motivation of teachers and fuel to enable the District Education Directorate adequately monitor the revision classes. The exercise covered all schools within the constituency and took place every other weekend over a six-week period


In recent times the overall performance of candidates at the BECE level in the district has been poor and gives cause to worry. Last year for example, out of a total of 968 pupils presented for the BECE exam in the District, as many as 568 representing 62% failed while a paltry 38% made the pass mark. It is against this backdrop that, the MP together with the District Education Directorate took the decision to organize a snap revision classes for all BECE candidates in the District.


The Junior High Schools across the district were organized into clusters for the exercise. About 99 teachers were engaged to take the pupils through the most critical subject areas and the best ways of answering questions according to WAEC chief examiners report. 


The revision classes run smoothly over the period and ended on Saturday, 6th November, 2021. 


Hon. Sumah in his rounds to some of the centers, had brief interactions with the pupils. He urged them to make appropriate use of the little time remaining to make sure they are well prepared for the exams. He wishes all candidates the best in the 2021 BECE which commences Monday, 15th November, 2021.
