Senior Education Officer with responsibility for Curriculum, Measurement and Evaluation, Robert Guiste said, “In every area, the boys are under performing; the girls are outperforming the boys and in the strong performance area the girls are doing much better than the boys.

Gusite also said that while almost all of the third term was lost, when one considers the scores,  online education although not perfect, did work, as the scores for 2019 and 2020 were almost the same.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
