Ahead of the 2023 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE), the education sub-committee of the Bawjiase Area Development Committee (ABADeC) has held a Career Guidance, Counseling, and Examination Clinic for candidates, enlightening them on best practices for external exams.
In all, some 685 pupils from 11 public schools sitting the pending external exams participated. Facilitators of the programme included examiners and invigilators.
In attendance at the Clinic was the chairman of the ABADeC, Nai Kwame Kurabi Opeikuma, and his entourage.
Others were representatives of the MP for Awutu Senya West, Hon. Gizella A. Tetteh, district guidance and counseling officers, the circuit counselor for Bawjiase ‘A, and a former president of the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), Miss Philippa Larson.
As beneficiaries expressed gratitude, parents and guardians prayed for organizers to make the examination clinic an evergreen project.
On her part, Madam Kate Essumang, who is the chairperson of the education sub-committee of ABADeC, said the workshop became necessary when the sub-committee realized the need to assist candidates in performing better in examinations.
The event was held on Thursday, and then on the following Sunday, an elder of The Apostolic Church-Ghana, Bawjiase, J. K. Quaye, led a prayer session, bearing the candidates in prayer for spiritual strength.
Elder Quaye, popularly known within the community as Chenche, spoke to the need for the prayer session and asked all other churches to continue the trend as usual.
He noted that such congregational prayer is an annual ritual of the church.
“To experience the kind of workshop in the community, tell how education matters to the people, and as a parent himself, any form of support is worth giving in reaching a goal,” Elder Quaye added.
