Just a few days after the release of the Junior Certificate Examinations (JCE), Basic Education minister, Unity Dow hosted top performing Nanogang Junior Secondary School teachers and students briefly at the Ministry headquarters.  A day after the release of Botswana General Certificate of Secondary Education (BGCSE), Dow was officiating at a celebratory ceremony at the top school, St Joseph’s College.

However, the Minister and her assistant, Moiseraela Goya are yet to visit Tshimologo Junior and Shoshong Senior secondary schools and indeed any other school to give a word of encouragement to students and teachers there.
