The Greater Accra Regional STEM Coordinator, Ms. Bertha Buah, has extended a goodwill message to all candidates sitting for this year’s Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE), encouraging them to approach the exams with confidence, focus, and a problem-solving mindset.
“Dear future scientists, engineers and innovators,” she began, “today, you walk into the exam hall not just as candidates, but as problem-solvers Ghana is counting on.”
Ms. Buah reminded candidates that science goes beyond memorising facts, stressing that it is built on curiosity, observation, and the courage to ask “why?” and “how?”.
She noted that the preparation candidates have gained from classroom learning and STEM activities has adequately equipped them for the examination.
She shared three key reminders for candidates:
- Read carefully — treat every question like an experiment and understand it before answering.
- Manage your time — begin with what you know and remember that every mark matters.
- Stay calm — breathe and trust the knowledge built from BS7 to BS9.
She further highlighted that practical lessons, STEM camps, international day celebrations, and science club sessions have all contributed to preparing learners for this stage.
The Regional Coordinator urged candidates to apply what they have learned with confidence, whether through play-based learning, classroom lessons, or educational engagements.
“I believe in you. Your teachers believe in you. Ghana believes in you,” she said. “Go and make us proud. Write your paper like the STEM champions you are. Science needs you—go and shine.”
