Education Minister Priya Manickchand says she is confident that the pilot project which was implemented earlier this year will have a positive impact on the performance of Math students who are sitting the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) examination.
The decision to implement the four-month long project came in the wake of continued poor results in Math. There was a 30% pass rate last year at the examination.
The minister had told Stabroek News that the ministry could not sit back and allow this crop of children to go down the same road, hence the new project. And it was not a project that was just pulled out
