The Minister as part of arrangements to ensure adequate preparation of students in her Constituency sponsored a special mock examination to prepare the BECE candidates ahead of their final examination.

She also commended the Ablekuma West Municipal Director of Education, Mr Chris Aforla, teachers and staff of the schools for their efforts in organizing this mock examination.
Meanwhile, the West African Examinations Council after postponing the conduct of the 2020 BECE for School Candidates amid COVID-19 later announced to administer the examination on Monday, September 14, 2020.
