CXC to release results to students in SVG no later than October 20

The Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC) will release results for the June/July 2021 examinations to candidates in St Vincent and the Grenadines on or before October 20, 2021.

In a release issued September 9 the CXC said this year, like many other institutions, it has had to modify its strategy for examinations due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Following consultation with regional governments and other key stakeholders from across the region, it was agreed in May 2021 to delay the sitting of the regional examinations by a further two weeks to allow more time for candidates to prepare for their exams. Exams commenced on 28 June 2021 and were completed on 30 July 2021.

“CXC® wishes to remind its stakeholders that results for the June/July 2021 examinations will be released in early to mid-October. CXC® is working assiduously to minimize the impact of the delays occasioned by the disruption of COVID-19 protocols on the logistical operations associated with the marking, grading and release of examinations results,” the release said.

The release of results will be a three-tiered approach:

• Firstly – Release to the Ministries of Education
• Secondly – Joint meeting with the Ministry of Education
• Thirdly – Release to candidates on or before 15 October 2021

St Vincent and the Grenadines

“The CXC® team is in contact with regional and international higher education institutions to communicate this timing to minimize the possibility of students being disadvantaged during the matriculation process,” the release said.
