Students who returned text books unable to access NGSA results

A number of students and their parents have reached out to this publication to report that they are unable to access their results of the National Grade Six Assessment Examination.

“This is bare mother $k#nt” one parent told this publication on Friday afternoon.

Today one parent from Winfer Gardens Primary told BIG Smith News Watch that she returned her child’s text books personally.

According to the parent, she was not made to the sign any document but handed the books over to a teacher who had a list of students who at the time did not return their text books.

After that child’s books were returned her name was strike off the list of other students who were yet to return books, this publication was told.

Several persons have already taken to Social Media to explain that they too have been unable to get results for the examinations even after returning text books.

One parent said after contacting the school where books for his child were returned, the teacher told him that they will contact the ministry and that he will have to wait until next week before he and his son can access the results from the examination.

The Ministry of Education has been begging and pleading with parents for weeks now to return text books to the respective schools from which they were loaned to children to assist in their studies.

A lot of the books which not yet returned; have to be used as pass down books to other children who are now in the respective grades that would require the use of the books.

The Ministry of Education has since employed a measure where it has teachers walking house to house to beg parents to return books which have not been given back to the schools.
