The exam results indicate some progress in certain subjects, though there is room for improvement in most cases. The Ministry of Education is actively exploring avenues to enhance student achievement across all subjects. An integral part of this effort involves the establishment of attainment and curriculum teams in every school since last year. These teams are mandated to devise strategies to elevate student performance in various areas, including academic performance. Optimistically, it is anticipated that this initiative will yield positive outcomes in the years to come.

Furthermore, the Ministry of Education commends the efforts of the students who have diligently worked towards achieving the highest grades and thank teachers for their dedication. The Ministry of Education also acknowledges the continuous contribution of all our esteemed stakeholders towards the education of our children.
