A HIGH COURT JUDGE has ordered that a primary school student with a learning disability be provided with a reader for the Secondary Entrance Assessment (SEA) exam on April 10.

Justice Westmin James made the order on April 4, as an interim relief in the legal challenge by the student’s father over the Education Ministry’s failure to provide him adequate support.

James ruled that while the court would not order the ministry to provide a student aide, the child would be allowed a reader for the SEA exam.
