The evidence of equity within the education system was recently highlighted in the results of the National Grade Six Assessment that was written on April 4 -5, by 17,138 students from all the primary schools and departments from across the country.

    
The outstanding results from schools, from Mabaruma Primary in Region One to Watooka Primary in Region 10 testify to the equitable delivery of quality education to the nation’s children, and the effectiveness of many policies and programmes introduced by the Administration over recent times.


The Government Information Agency on Saturday spoke with Region Five’s top 10 scorers and the following are their comments.

I feel excited and happy. I did a lot of revising, spent late nights revising and my mom and dad helped me.  When I grow up I want play cricket for the West Indies.

I felt excited.  I was actually aiming for Queen’s College but I’m very satisfied with what I got.  I was home looking at the newspaper at the top hundred when I got the news... I would like to thank my parents, teachers who worked extra hard with me. I’m happy for this. This is amazing. I want to become a doctor.

I was excited and overjoyed when I got the news. My future goal is to go on to university and study abroad.  I worked very hard and stayed up late .. I cut out Tv and computer playing … I  want to thank God, my parents and my aunt for pushing me to revise and to pay attention to whatever was taught in school.

When I got the message I was excited, I didn’t know what to do. I credit God, my parents, grandparents and my teachers. I know without God it could not have been a success.

Hosea Nedd, Hopetown Primary, 515 marks
I was extremely happy and I know that I would have done well because I studied very hard.
