A total of 3 295 students are sitting this year’s Barbados Secondary Schools’ Entrance Examination (BSSEE) this morning, among them scores of children who made their way to the Princess Margaret Secondary School in Six Roads, St Philip.

Students from seven schools will sit the exam, commonly known as the Common Entrance or 11-plus Exam, there. They are Hilda Skeene Primary, St Catherine’s Primary, Bayley’s Primary, St Mark’s Primary, Reynold Weekes Primary, St Martins Mangrove and St Philip Primary.

Parents were seen hugging and kissing their wards before they entered the exam centre and giving them a final word of advice. (SZB)
