Following the release of last year’s A-level results, St Peter’s SS Naalya is one of the schools in high spirits.
The school’s head teacher, John Nfite, could not hide his joy at the way the school performed in the recently-released level A-level results. Started in 1998, the school has been exceling for 20 years, with Nfite explaining that their current enrolment stands at 1,600 learners.
Some 277 sat for last year’s A-level exams. Of these, the school saw two students scoring 19 points. A further eight scored 18 points, while seven got 17 points.
A further 10 students scored 16 points and 14 students obtained 15 points. Nfite attributed the good performance to a policy he had been running there over the last five years.
“We complete the syllabus in time to allow learners enough time to revise whatever we have taught them in-depth,” Nfite said.
“We try our best in preparing the candidates by exploring the whole syllabus as indicated by the National Curriculum Development Centre (NCDC) and we also follow the guidelines of the ministry of education.”
He added: “The teachers do the teaching of science subjects practically on a daily basis; we may be the only school that makes the culture of practical teaching of sciences not theoretically in class alone”.
Nfite also attributed the school’s success to the rapport among teachers, parents, board members and the students, who he says are committed to the cause of excellence there.
“I take the pleasure and honour to congratulate the management board of governors, staff, parents and more so our students for the excellent performance in the UACE 2016.”
