Mr. Esmond Forde, M.P. for Tunapuna visited majority of schools in the constituency of Tunapuna to give S.E.A. students "pep" talks along with their teachers and in some instance parents. Mr. Forde even went back to when he was a child what he did on the morning of Common Entrance at the time. " I woke up ate a normal breakfast got ready and reached to school on time. No extra breakfast or no set of "simmydimmy " said Mr. Forde. He went on to speak about parents causing anxiety by pressuring kids to study at that late hour on the day before exams. He advised the parents to carry the children to the malls for ice cream or just in an relaxing environment . He also urged parents to ensure an environment of peace and relaxation for your children and to eliminate unnecessary quarrellings. Mr. Forde went on to brief teachers also to make sure that everything is set up for in the Morning of Exam for e.g. number written on desk etc.
