Top SEA listing not to be published
Minister of Education Dr Nyan Gadsby-Dolly has announced that for the 2022 SEA examination, the top-placed students will not be publicised.
In a press conference on Friday, Gadsby-Dolly said the practice started in an effort to inspire other students to achieve the same success, but over time has had negative results.
“In particular, this public practice has resulted in students who have performed admirably, even to secure a second place in their first-choice secondary school, to have their performances overshadowed by an unhealthy competitiveness, often driven by parents, over relative examination scores, which are preliminary.”
She said the ministry was "extremely concerned that this practice now has the potential to have our young scholars now put under undue pressure to secure a high ranking in the SEA examination and diminish their self-worth.”
She felt the practice, which had a laudable aim, had been “disfigured by changing societal attitudes.”
The ranking list will only be finalised after the review period has lapsed. It will also be available through written request.
“Consideration will be given by the Ministry of Education to the provision of the final rank of the examinations individually and privately.”
In October 2020, the ministry named Ameera Beekhoo top SEA student and in an award ceremony at the ministry she was given a laptop, a cellphone and a bmobile internet contract.
But on March 31, the principal of Bekhoo’s former school, San Fernando TML, got a letter saying Bekhoo will get the Presidents Medal (Silver) for placing second. The principal of a private primary school in Port of Spain was invited along with one of her students and three other guests, to receive the top award instead.
Both letters have since been rescinded and after the parents of the students threatened legal action, Bekhoo and Aaron Subero, were jointly awarded the gold medal.

"Unhealthy" competitiveness? Lol
The world gone soft yes. Success should always be celebrated. Not hidden because the people who didn't succeed will feel bad.

Maharaj said, "I will say the Maha Sabha schools did better than last year. Our schools did very, very well this year." He said in recent years his schools had made "a tremendous improvement."
He expected the Association of Denominational Boards to offer some commentary, even as he wished to speak to his colleagues.
While not yet ready to comment, Maharaj questioningly revealed that a Maha Sabha pupil had scored 271 this year, ahead of last year's first-place score of 260.

2021-SEA students just really had to do past papers at home, the syllabus is usually mostly done in standard 4
2022-SEA students basically had to learn the entire SEA curriculum via online learning, a garbage fire ensues

This explains the decline in the past 2 years. Basically this year students entire Form 4 preparation was affected by the pandemic lockdown of school. I think they only came out in January?
