The principal of Dawnview High School, Moeketsie Kolokoto, is satisfied with his school\u2019s results in the 2016 matric examinations.<\/p>\n

The school attained an 89 per cent pass rate.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

\u201cOverall I am happy as there has been an improvement compared to 2015,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The school had 123 matric pupils who between them attained 15 distinctions.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The results included 29 bachelor’s degree passes, 55 diploma passes and 24 higher certificate passes.<\/p>\n

The top three learners were: Adaeze Ikwuemesim (with a 71 per cent pass rate); Neo Mphahlele (with a distinction in life orientation) and Nonjabulo Mkhonza (with a distinction in life orientation).<\/p>\n

\u201cI attribute the results to the hard work displayed by the teachers as it was not easy for them.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am also extremely pleased that all our student leaders passed their exams with bachelor’s passes,\u201d Kolokoto said.<\/p>\n

He added that in 2017 they were going to work hard and improve the results.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo do this, however, we need the full cooperation of the learners,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
