Minister of Education, Dr. Nyan Gadsby-Dolly announced at this morning’s Press Conference (Friday 1st July 2022) that over 9,000 students scored under 50% in this year’s SEA results. In light of this, along with other low-performance statistics, there will be a Vacation Revision Programme running from 18th July to 12th August 2022 at twenty-six (26) secondary schools. She noted this would require 600 teachers.
The Minister added that these classes will have no more than fifteen (15) students and will run from 9am to 3pm. Registration will take place between 11th to 15th July 2022 and parents are advised to register at a school closest to their home. This programme will cost the State approximately $10 million.

Mean Scores for 2021:
At this morning’s Press Conference, the Minister shared that the percentage of students that scored above 50% in 2022 was 37.06% compared to 63% in 2020 and 52.49% in 2021. The percentage of students that scored 30% or below in 2022 was 27.81% compared to 11% in 2020 and 17.7% in 2021. Minister Gadsby-Dolly also shared that the percentage of students that scored over 90% in 2022 was 0.47% compared to 3% in 2021. The Minister said these statistics show a clear reduction in achievement which can be linked to learning-loss due to lack of face-to-face schooling. Minister Gadsby-Dolly also announced that the Ministry will no longer be making public announcements when it comes to student rankings — any revealing of rank after the final result will be individually or privately done.
