SEA students told to relax and be confident

MORE THAN 20,000 students will be writing the Secondary Entrance Assessment examination today.

Among them are students of  St Ursula’s Anglican and Tranquillity Government primary schools respectively. Students from these two schools were given an added incentive by the Minister of Education, Hazel Manning. The Minister assured the students, their teachers and members of the Parent-Teacher Associations that all pupils writing the examination will be placed in secondary schools. She urged the students to be relaxed, confident and to always do their best. “I know that almost everything you have done during your primary school career, and more particularly over the past two years, has been in preparation for the examination. “It has been a long journey, but when you go home, I want you to get a good night’s rest, have a good breakfast, say your prayers and come with a confident mind to tackle the examination.
