Flagbearer of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP), Brigitte Dzogbenuku says her party will abolish the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) should Ghanaians give her the nod in the upcoming 2020 general elections.

Madam Dzogbenuku disclosed this in an interview with Umaru Sanda Amadu on Citi TV’s Face to Face, .

“We will abolish BECE because every child must be educated at least to the SHS level…If everybody is educated to the SHS level and at least can read and write, Ghana will have a different kind of society where people are more informed and are more empowered. Examinations are not the only way to check people.”

“There can be regular assessment of the school and of the systems of how the teachers are performing and then the exam becomes the ultimate. We can’t use only exams to test kids because that is not the best test of a school or an education system.”
