The Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC) advises that the Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination (CAPE), Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) and Caribbean Certificate of Secondary Level Competence (CCLSC) examinations will be administered in their original format, that is, for CAPE and CSEC Papers 01, 02 and 031/School-Based Assessments (SBAs) or Paper 032 for private candidates, and for CCSLC, Papers 01 and 031/School-Based Assessments.
CXC will maintain the strategy of 100% SBA moderation across all centres, for all subjects in 2022.
Examination dates are as follows:
- May/June CAPE examinations: 2 May – 10 June 2022
- May/June CSEC: 2 May – 3 June 2022
- CCSLC examinations: 6 – 9 June 2022
- CPEA examinations: 27 – 28 May 2022
Caribbean Vocational Qualification (CVQ) assessment will be conducted between May and July 2022. Dates will be determined by individual participating territories.
Official timetables are available at www.cxc.org/download-timetables.
CXC has once again put concessions in place to support students in light of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. These include:
- School Based Assessments (SBAs) – The reductions to SBA Requirements made in 2021, as much as 50% in some subjects, were maintained
- Option to Defer – The deferral strategy has been extended for use any time prior to the administration of a subject. Candidates will be able to defer to January or June 2023, whenever the subject is administered
As we look ahead to 2023, CXC continues to work with regional Ministries of Education on its digital transformation strategy. Plans are currently underway to begin administering all Paper 01 examinations electronically in 2023.
