Both students and instructors involved with CAPE and CSEC examinations will be relieved to know there is an update for this year’s exams. After two years of an amended version, the Caribbean Examination Council also says this year the examinations will be administered in their full format. Today, the council held a virtual session to share the information throughout the region.
