The Education Ministry will be embarking on a series of tests over the summer holiday to determine if those Primary Exit Profile (PEP) students who achieved low results have undiagnosed learning challenges.

Portfolio Minister, Dr. Dana Morris Dixon announced the initiative during a PEP results press conference at Jamaica House yesterday.

The move is part of efforts to ensure that all the nation’s education needs are met.
