“Undoubtedly, CXC has come a long way since then and is batting well. 50 and not out! Dr.
Wesley, on behalf of the Ministry of Education I extend congratulations to you and the staff at
CXC on reaching this very significant milestone, not just for the mere fact that you reached 50
but because you have achieved your goal of regional cooperation. The Caribbean Examinations
Council (CXC) has developed into a household name for students in the English and Dutch
speaking Caribbean. This examination board not only carries weight in our region but is
recognized internationally”, extolled Minister Hanley.

among the members of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). Its mission is executed through
the provision of standardized examinations for students enrolled at the primary, secondary, and
tertiary levels across its member states, encompassing both the English and Dutch Caribbean
