AGP Executive Report
Last update: 6 hours agoEducation & Exams: CXC says absenteeism is a major concern after more than 35,000 candidates missed this year’s CAPE and CSEC sittings, including 3,534 absent for CAPE and 32,403 for CSEC—meaning they lost the chance to be graded. Education Reform: CXC also officially launched the Caribbean Targeted Education Certificate (CTEC) in Anguilla, calling it a “game changer” after a math pilot delivered an 88% pass rate for module one; the modular approach keeps the same syllabus and standards but lets students earn step-by-step credentials. Exam Integrity: CXC reported its first official AI misuse cases, alongside unauthorised devices, collusion, and unauthorised material, and warned students not to put personal data into AI platforms. Local Governance: Anguilla is hosting the hybrid official release ceremony for the 2026 May-June results, with Minister Shellya Rogers-Webster and CXC leadership set to brief stakeholders and media. Regional Policy: OECS unveiled a 2026–2032 Regional Child Policy and Strategic Plan with UNICEF support, pushing a whole-of-the-child approach to protect and empower children across the sub-region.
