Deputy Minister for Education, Dr. Clement Apaak, has encouraged candidates taking part in the ongoing Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) to have confidence in themselves as they sit for the exams.
“We know it has not been easy, but we also believe you have worked very hard with the support of your teachers to come this far,” Dr. Apaak told the candidates. “Have faith in yourselves. This is only a test of your memory and what you have been taught.”
Addressing the candidates at Tamale Secondary School in the Northern Region, as part of the Ministry of Education’s monitoring exercise, Dr. Apaak explained that the Minister for Education, Haruna Iddrisu, was unable to be present due to other equally important engagements in Accra.
He conveyed warm greetings on behalf of the Minister for Education, Haruna Iddrisu, and His Excellency, President John Dramani Mahama, to the candidates.
The Builsa South Member of Parliament also visited Tamale Islamic Science Senior High School and Sakasaka Senior High School in the region.
He assured the students of the government’s commitment to improving conditions at the secondary and TVET levels.
Dr Apaak stated that infrastructure upgrades were being planned, including better accommodation, furniture, and feeding systems, to ensure a more supportive learning environment.
Encouraging the students to give their best, Dr Apaak urged them to remain confident in their preparation and trust in both God and their own abilities.
“We are proud of you and confident that you will succeed,” he concluded.
