EDITORIAL - CXC at 40: well done!
KINGSTON, Jamaica - Those who are wont to decry - and there are many - the quality and efficacy of anything formulated and executed in the Caribbean might give thought to the Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC).
The CXC is an institution of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). It sets secondary-school examinations, primarily for students in this region, assuming a place of primacy formerly occupied by the English examination bodies, Cambridge and London universities.
Significantly, CXC is marking its 40th year of existence, an occasion that was marked in Jamaica on Sunday with a service at the Webster Memorial United Church in Kingston. We are surprised that more was not made of the event, or the celebrations more broadly, because we believe that the CXC has much of which to be proud.
