‘Yes We Can’ empowers over 1,160 BECE Candidates in 23 JHSs on exams fright and more

A total of 1,160 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) from 23 Junior High Schools (JHS) in Sekondi-Takoradi from Monday June 26 to Friday June 30, 2023 received pep-talk on how to fight examination fright, how to answer the BECE questions amongst others.

Titled ‘Yes We Can,’ the one-hour pep-talk to the BECE Candidates is organised by ww.233times.net. According to the Convener, Nana Kwesi Coomson, this is “to empower the Candidates who are set to write their first external examination in August.”

“As this is the first external examination, it comes with some level of examination fright. I was a victim of this BECE fright because as a teenager, I was wondering if I could make it in the BECE to get my dream school and those thoughts worried me a lot. I realised that most of my friends also had this same fright when they were writing their BECE so we came up with a tour to empower the Candidates so that they overcome this fright” Mr. Coomson added.

The 2023 edition of the ‘Yes We Can’ one-hour pep-talk with the BECE Candidates is the 6th edition of the project as the organisers have for the past six years spoken to Candidates to help them better prepare for the BECE.
