During the 2018 academic year a total of 56 534 candidates, comprising of 23 594 full-time and 32 940 part time learners, registered for the Namibia Senior Secondary Certificate (NSSC) examinations.
Education minister Katrina Himarwa-Hanse said last week during the official announcement of the results that she is pleased.
“It gives me immense pleasure and honour to congratulate all the candidates who devoted their time to their studies,” she said.
She further motivated the learners who did not perform well to keep on pushing. “All is not lost, pick yourself up, improve your results through the available institutions and work harder next time.”
The top ten performers shared what inspired them with The Zone.
