Learners in Junior Secondary School (JSS) will be issued with School Year Report (SYR) at the end of each of Grades 7, 8 and 9.
According to the Ministry of Education’s (MoE) Guidelines for Implementation of Junior Secondary Education released by the State Department for Basic Education in January 2023, the report will provide a complete and comprehensive qualitative and quantitative account of learner’s progress and achievement in all the learning areas in the respective grades.
The SYR will also contain information on learner’s acquisition of core competencies, core values, participation in pertinent and contemporary issues, and participation in co-curricular activities.
In addition, learners will be issued with Learner Transition Report (LTR) based on pathways to Senior Secondary School (SSS) as well as Stage-based Pathway to Vocational level.
There will also be the result slips and certificates for candidates, which will be a statement of provisional results issued immediately after results are announced followed by an official attestation document.
Further, there will be a Learner Exit Profile (LEP). Here, learners following the Stage-Based Pathway may exit the formal school programme at any stage due to limitations posed by disability or curriculum complexity to an extent that they are unable to transit to the next level.
This profile will include a comprehensive account of learner’s acquisition of pre-vocational skills, communication skills and skills for independent living as well as acquisition of competencies and values.
Learners in the age-based pathway will be issued with LEP upon completion of Basic Education at Grade 12.
