Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar is extending best wishes to thousands of students preparing to sit the Secondary Entrance Assessment tomorrow.
In a message to the nation’s children, she urged them to stay calm, confident, and trust in their preparation.
“As you enter your examination rooms, remain calm, stay focused, and approach each question with confidence. Trust in your preparation, for it reflects months of effort and years of learning, discipline, and sacrifice, all of which are truly admirable at such a young stage of your lives,” Mrs Persad-Bissessar stated.
The Prime Minister also assured that measures are in place to ensure a safe and smooth examination process.
“As Prime Minister, I have issued clear instructions to all relevant authorities to ensure the smooth and safe conduct of these examinations, and to maintain order, quiet, and security at all centres so that every child can perform at their very best,” she stated.
She reaffirmed Government’s commitment to education, including expanded digital access and safer school environments, while reminding students the SEA is just one step in their journey.
“Always remember that you are loved, believed in, and valued. Do your best and believe in yourselves. This examination is only one step in a much larger journey, and your effort, your character, and your determination will shape the future you go on to build,” she stated.
SEA exams will be staged on 26 March.
