Accra, - 16 June A 20 million-cedi French examination centre with a capacity for 150 candidates was commissioned in Accra today. The Centre, with three halls, belongs to the Complexe Scolaire d'Accra (CSA), a primary and junior secondary school which provides tuition in French and English. It is the first in the country and is to facilitate the holding of the Togolese basic school examinations (or BEPC), the equivalent of the Basic Education Certificate Examinations (BECE) in Ghana. The CSA, which is a bilingual school, offers courses in subjects like mathematics, biology, history, technical drawing and geography. Prior to its establishment, students taking the BEPC examination, had to travel to Togo. Officials from the Togolese Ministry of Education and the Togolese Embassy in Ghana formally opened it. Mr Bonsi Kokouvi, Head of the Examination Department of the Togolese Ministry of Education, said the centre was initiated by the Togolese government as an expression of the bond of friendship between Ghana and Togo. It was also to assist Ghanaians eager to learn French to do so. Mr Robert Adjei, Executive Director of CSA, urged parents to send their children to bilingual schools early and not to wait until they are over-aged.
