A reform paper on the move towards abolishing the Common Entrance Examination is now before Prime Minister Mia Mottley and a decision on the way forward is imminent.Deputy Prime Minister Santia Bradshaw made the disclosure on Tuesday as she insisted that although scrapping the exam, officially known as the Barbados Secondary Schools’ Entrance Examinations (BSSEE), remains on the card, plans to support the change were to be finalised.“I am well aware as well that the paper on the reform has been finally completed and is before the Prime Minister for consideration and then onto Cabinet, so I expect that those decisions would be made very shortly,” Bradshaw, a former Education Minister said.Prime Minister Mottley had said in May that the Ministry was yet to complete the final reform paper and any education reform is “at least a two or three year process”.
