    You probably don't even know what your saying because tribalism is killing you yourself. It's not about the English accent. It's all about the use of your brain and it seems you have none.

    Very confused

    Confused minister. BECE exam off, entrance exam in. Exam is an exam. The value is the same

  • Sly K. Ed 1 year ago

    Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum probably paid for his best teacher award. Most policies he bring on board tactically killing/ destroying education in Ghana. No good teacher does this.

    I can see the ignorance of some people here. If you don't know just ask. Now there's a national standard exams in class 2, 4, 6 and JHS 2. These exams will replace BECE.

    Are we reintroducing Common Entrance exam into our educational system? How will this fit into the free SHS policy? What happens to those who do not pass?

  • Pelicles 1 year ago

    And what about those who do not pass the BECE exams?

  • Zoobie-Zoobie 1 year ago

    THIS IDIOT MINISTER THINKS HE IS THE ONLY ONE WHO UNDERSTANDS EDUCATION!!!!

    FROM AN UNACCOMPLISHED SCHOOL TEACHER TO DEPUTY MINISTER TO MINISTER AND A THIEF!!!!!!!!!!

  • Kojo Sromani 1 year ago

    Then the value is the same; akin to the redenominstion. Flip flopping has become our lot. We have been experimenting with basic education since the 70s, and it appears it will not end soon. So sad and pathetic.

  • 1FISHERMAN 1 year ago

    ...so ,why the change?

  • Joe 1 year ago

    Then why not maintain the BECE then. If entrance exams are required to enter SHS, then why not maintain the BECE?

  • Osei Tutu 1 year ago

    Because it's a waste of time, money and resources. BECE is not free. It's paid for by the government but that huge amount of money spent every year on BECE çan be used to support the newly introduced TVET education. It loo ...

    An idiot called Pelicles. How many of them have the tablet. Visit any school at random and ask them to show you their tablets. Fool

  • Kojo Sromani 1 year ago

    How sustainable is it? What happens when the tablet gets damaged? Who repairs it, especially in this difficult economy, amd more so for those who are coming from very poor families?
