Top Matric achievement for Domino Servite School

Thankfulness to our Lord as mission school scores top marks

We are grateful to God for His blessing upon Domino Servite School. The final exam in South African schools is called "matric" - commonly known as Grade 12 in most countries. This exit year is monitored on a national basis by Umalusi which is the "statutory organization which sets and monitors standards for general and further education and training in South Africa with the purpose of continually enhancing the quality of education and training."

Besides the 100% matric pass (which the school has achieved for the last 22 years), all the learners passed with exemption (necessary for entry to university).

The Sunday Times wrote an article on one of the matriculants, Claude Peters.

DSS uses the Independent Examination Board, which has a more "benchmarked" matric exam.

The general matric results across South Africa, were disappointing with only 60.6% managing to pass. KwaZulu-Natal was ahead in improving the "dismal matric exams performance in the country and emerged as the only province where results for the 2009 finals have improved."
