There is likely to be an 11-plus exam again next year, despite Government’s plans to abolish the annual test.Minister of Education Kay McConney hinted at that on Tuesday as she disclosed that authorities were still engaged in consultations to determine when that move away from the Barbados Secondary Schools Entrance Examination (BSSEE) would actually happen.“Is this the last year? Let us see where the consultations take us. I suspect not,” Minister McConney said in a response to a question posed by the media at a press conference at the Ministry to announce the results of this year’s exam.She stressed, however, that the BSSEE, which determines how students transition from primary to secondary level, was part of wider reform in the education system.
