Standard seven exam results released, up by 11pc

Irresponsibility and negligence by local authorities and school administrators have been cited as the main reason for bad performance during last year’s Standard Seven National Examinations in the region.

The 15 per cent performance improvement in last year’s Form Four examination results is nothing to celebrate about, education analysts and activists have said.
