Following a Facebook post by former Minister of Education, Priya Manickchand, concerning the delay in publishing the National Grade Six Assessment (NGSA) results, the Ministry of Education has announced that the results will be made public on Thursday, June 28, 2018.
According to the former Minister of Education, “The NGSA ( common entrance) results have been ready and available for publication for over a week now. Most already know which school and which child topped, who got second and third etc etc. Yet the nation is made to wait on the publication of the results. The Gov’t has no clue and is clearly unconcerned by how much parents, teachers and children invest in the education of our students. This kind of contempt for the very people on whose already weak backs the Minister climbs to get her enormous and undeserved salary and perks and her education, which she is now pursuing, is unacceptable and heartless. Our children deserve timely results that have not been tampered with. Release the results NOW!”
Shortly thereafter, in a statement, the Ministry said that the Minister of Education will make the announcements at 13:00 hrs in the boardroom of the National Centre for Education Resource Development (NCERD), Kingston, Georgetown.
The NGSA was written by 14,551 students in late March this year.
