Abstract
The government has directed all school to stop the policy of automatic promotion of learners, effective immediately, in a bid to improve academic performance and reduce failure rates. The State Minister for Primary Education, Dr. Joyce Moriku Kuducu, criticised teachers for promoting learners with weak grades, a practice she partly blamed for poor results in the Primary Leaving Examinations. (PLE).
