Somaliland National Examination Board has released the results of Grade 8 and Form 4 examination results of primary and secondary schools respectively.
In total, close to thirty thousand students sat for the national standardized exams of Form Eight and Form Four grades.
The chairman of the National Board of Examination, Da’ud Ahmed Farah, gave an overview of the results of the national examinations. He announced that 19,874 students sat for the Grade Eight standardized test with 87 per cent success rate. 9,691 students also sat for the secondary school graduation exam, with 8,787 passing. That corresponds to 90 per cent of the students passing the test successfully.
The chairman added that in aggregate, 92 per cent of the students successfully passed the exam.
However, the students did not pass with flying colours. None of the Form Four students attained an A+ grade. While 37 percent of them passed with the lowest three grades of D+, D, and D-.
The poor performance was also evident in maths and science results. No region scored an average of 35% in math for the High school students.
