GRADE 7, 9 RESULTS OUT
By Patricia Banda
All pupils that sat for the grade seven examination in 2020 have made it to grade eight.
General Education Minister Dennis Wanchinga says this progression rate is the same as that of 2019.
Dr. Wanchinga says this is because of the robust infrastructure development the PF administration has been created at secondary level.
He says the Ministry will review the policy of automatic progression so that only learner who displays competencies are allowed to go to grade 8.
He said this when he announced the grade nine and seven examination results for 2020.
And Dr. Wanchinga said there has been an increase in the number of pupils who have qualified to grade 10 when compared to 2019.
He said government will continue investing in measures aimed at creating classroom accommodation and improved learning at Secondary school level.
