Grenada opposition calls for help with payment of CXC exam fees
October 28th 2011, St. George’s Grenada:
Shadow Cabinet Member with responsibility for Education, Mrs. Delma Thomas is calling on the Tillman Thomas Administration to ensure that no student is denied an opportunity to sit CXC exams next year, because they are unable to make payments for those exams today.
The Ministry of Education has given persons today as the deadline to pay for the exams. However Mrs. Thomas noted that the current economic situation has made it very difficult for some parents especially those who have lost their jobs and have been struggling to meet their basic needs. She added that an unemployed single mother with a child sitting exams will have to find a total of $409.00 if that child is taking seven CXC subjects.
