BEST student in the just released National Form Four Examinations results, Alfred Shauri, yesterday credited all his achievements ‘‘to the Almighty God’’, advising all students to work hard under His guidance.
As the young Shauri, whom the management
of Feza Boys School has described as a ‘very special boy’ attributed
his brilliant score to God, Dar es Salaam regional authorities were busy
assessing the results in which the region’s six schools have emerged
among the ten worst performers.
Alfred, whom the National Examination
Council of Tanzania (NECTA) declared yesterday as the best overall
student in the exams, told the ‘Daily News’ a few hours after the
results were released that prayers were the source of all his
achievements.
Speaking at his Mbezi Beach-based Feza
Boys School in Dar es Salaam, he expressed gratitude to all who have
contributed to his success ‘‘under the guidance of the Almighty’’.
He advised other students to work hard,
saying success can be achieved from anywhere regardless of school one is
schooling. Cynthia Mchechu, the second best student and the best
student in female category, was overjoyed for her achievement and short
of words.
The daughter of the National Housing
Corporation (NHC)Director General Nehemia Mchechu, only urged her fellow
students to focus on their studies as the only way of attaining their
dreams.
The Manager and Founder of Marian Girls
and Boys secondary schools, Father Valentino Bayo said his schools that
acquired position four and five in the list of top ten schools, received
the examination results with happiness and that it was the mission of
the school to have students graduating with flying colours.
“Our intention is to see our students
moving to the next level of their education after passing well and that
is equally a dream of every parent that enrolls students at our
schools,’’ he said.
According to Father Bayo, it was not a
big deal to see his school emerging number one or two, but the best
satisfaction of the school was when all students passed with either
division one or two to move to the next level of their education.
Dar es Salaam Region performed poorly in
the Form Four results, with six out of ten secondary schools from the
bottom that performed badly coming from the country’s commercial city.
In his reaction, Dar es Salaam Regional Commissioner (RC), Mr Paul
Makonda, said his region was currently making an assessment on the
education sector in the region, promising to issue an official report in
the next few days.
“After receiving proper information from
those in charge of the education sector in the region, I will
communicate to the public on what made these schools to perform so
poorly and the strategies that we will have come up with to improve in
the coming examinations,’’ he said
