The registration of the first batch of private candidates for the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) re-sit is scheduled for September 2014, Professor Naana Jane Opoku Agyemang, Minister of Education, said on Monday.
The candidates would, thus, sit for the examinations in February 2015.
Speaking at the opening of the 2014 National Education Sector Annual Review in Accra, Professor Opoku Agyemang said the Ministry of Education and the West Africa Examination Council has initiated discussions and a road-map was being developed for the BECE candidates.
The four-day meeting is on the theme: “Efficiency: Key to Sustainable Quality Education beyond 2015” and it is being attended by stakeholders in the educational sector including development partners and non-governmental organizations.
Stakeholders would review the performance of the sector over the past year, discuss key issues and priorities and make recommendations for the ensuing year as well as the way forward on efficient use of resources.
Prof. Opoku-Agyemang said the annual review marked the time set aside to strengthen the commitment to the joint responsibility and partnership between government and all stakeholders in the education sector.
The objective is to dialogue on and discuss critical sector issues that should lead to the translation of threats and weaknesses into opportunities and strength .
