Education
is the only golden cage in which the eggs of success must be laid, said Modou Lamin Age-Almusaf Sowe. In this information-saturated world, people need an affordable, a quality and relevant education to survive. The Gambia, also known as the Smiling Coast of Africa, is not an exception to this. According to the World Education News & Reviews (WENR), in The Gambia, the West African Examinations Council administers The
Gambia Basic Education Certificate Examination (GABECE), taken at the
end of upper basic school (nine years), in addition to the West African
Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), taken at the end of the
Senior Secondary School curriculum (12 years).
The GABECE was first
introduced in 2002, replacing the Junior School Leaving Certificate. The
Senior Secondary School curriculum and the West African Senior School
Certificate were adopted in 1998.
According to WAEC data, just over 14,200 students took WASSCE
examinations in 2012, an increase of 14 percent in 2011. Including
the basic education examinations, a total of just over 115,000 Gambian
students took WAEC administered examinations in 2012.Since The Gambia became a republic in 1970, the country has made huge strikes in the promotion and attainment of a relevant and a quality education for all Gambians. The Government of The Gambia has been and continue to provide a very relevant and affordable education to Gambians at no cost.
