Private Primary school students dominated the Grade Six National Assessment (G6NA) top 100 list by securing 86 positions.
This means that only 14 of the 100 top scorers were from government schools.
Of that 86, Baptist Academy had 15 students and St Nicholas 14 while in the government section Five Islands Primary was deemed the top school with four top scorers, three of whom were males.
Jennings Primary, Sea View Farm Primary, and Mary E Pigott Primary each had two placements.
Despite that staggering difference, the overall performances of the 1,446 students who wrote the National Assessment this year were commendable in the two top levels compared to 2019 ’s sitting.
