The Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC®) has issued a formal message to students, teachers, and parents across the region, reaffirming its commitment to fairness and human development in how it approaches the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in School-Based Assessments (SBAs).
According to Antigua Observer, the regional examination body's message carries the theme "Your Integrity is Your Qualification," signalling a pro-student, pro-teacher stance on the responsible use of emerging AI tools within academic settings.
The council's communication emphasises that its position on AI in SBAs is grounded in fairness and a genuine concern for students' growth and development. The statement appears aimed at reassuring stakeholders that CXC® is not taking a punitive approach, but rather one focused on guiding the academic community through a rapidly evolving technological landscape.
The message targets three key groups — students, teachers, and parents — reflecting the council's recognition that responsible AI use in education is a shared responsibility that extends beyond the classroom.
As CXC® continues to navigate the growing influence of AI in academic environments, the council's public communication underscores the importance of integrity as a cornerstone of genuine qualification and achievement throughout the Caribbean region.
