THE 2008 Grade Seven results are finally out, the Zimbabwe School Examinations Council has announced.
Zimsec director Mr Happy Ndanga yesterday said the results were being sent to all regional offices and would be available to schools from today.
School heads should liaise with their Zimsec regional managers.
Grade Seven results are traditionally released between the end of November and the first week of December, but the examinations council was faced with numerous problems resulting in the late release of the results.
Last year’s Grade Seven candidates are already attending Form One classes after they were admitted on the basis of their mid-year examinations.
“The delayed June Ordinary Level and Advanced Level examinations will commence on Monday, as previously announ-ced by the Minister of Education, Sport, Arts and Culture David Coltart.
“From July 3 onwards, question papers and other related materials will be available from Zimsec regional offices or as per information from Zimsec regional managers.
“Heads and centre supervisors are advised to liaise with their Zimsec managers on this matter,” he said.
On November O and A Level examination fees, Mr Ndanga said Zimsec was awaiting information adding that the council would advise on dates and other logistics for these examinations.
A Level results were only released in May with O level results being released on June 5.
Results of all levels were delayed after markers downed tools over a payment dispute.
