“Despite having to close schools for 3 weeks in the middle of the year due to Covid-19 Pandemic, the students have done extremely well.”
“This year, we have decided to have to have 3 Separate Categories for ranking the top performing schools in the country.”
“Especially for the Gr. 12’s, we have a category for the Public System schools, the Schools of Excellence and the new Category for the private schools,” said Education Department Secretary Dr. Uke Kombra.
Even though there were suggestions to close schools during the recent surge of Covid-19, the department disagreed and kept schools open so students can continue learning while adhering to the covid protocols.
Schools were advised to provide water for washing hands and hand sanitizers whilst mask wearing was mandatory in schools.
Top Performing schools and most improved schools were awarded certificates by the department of Education which was presented to them today.
Dr Uke Kombra thanked all teachers and staff for their hard work all throughout the academic year and wished them all a successful year for 2022.
