Social Share THE CARIBBEAN Examinations Council (CXC) has made the decision to further delay external examinations by two weeks. This decision was announced on Wednesday, May 26, just days after the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) called for Ministers of Education of CARICOM countries to request that the Council adjust CSEC and CAPE exams in 2021 to simplify the content and methodology across subject areas. According to regional reports, CXC Registrar Dr Wayne Wesley said on Wednesday during a press conference that examinations will now commence on June 28 – a decision made during a special council meeting held one day earlier. Under this new timeline, results are expected to be released during the last week of September, into the first week of October.
