THE results for the 2024 National Grade Six Assessment (NGSA) will be announced next Thursday, according to Minister of Education, Priya Manickchand.
Pupils sat those exams on May 2 and May 3 at schools across the country, and it was announced that the results would be announced on or before July 5.

Manickchand, during a post on her Facebook page, congratulated all the pupils who sat the exams and indicated that they were already winners.
Against this backdrop, she reminded them that schools have limited spaces and some pupils might not be able to make it into their dream schools based on these limited spaces.

However, she said that the ministry’s aim is to ensure that each school across the country provides students with the same high quality of education across the board.
“Our aim is to make sure whichever school you go to, whichever school you earn, that you can get a solid high-quality education through trained teachers, equal resources like in your dream school, easy access and everything else that would have made your dream school your dream school,” she added.
Previously, the Education Minister declared the exams a massive success, as it was conducted without any hiccups.
Manickchand said that over the period, based on preliminary numbers, there was a 95 per cent attendance registered as numbers from far-flung regions had not been reported at that time. However, she noted that there was a three per cent absentee rate which the ministry hopes to decrease in the future.
