CIOG schools secure 100% passes at NGSA 2023

The Central Islamic Organisation of Guyana, and its schools, Al-Ghazali Islamic Academy in Georgetown and Meten-Meer-Zorg Islamic Academy at West Coast Demerara, have once again recorded passes in the top 200 at the exams.
In a release on Friday, CIOG said both schools have attained 100 per cent passes at the NGSA.
The pupils, who sat the NGSA attained senior secondary schools in Georgetown and its environs.
This year eight orphans and vulnerable children, who are currently benefitting from CIOG’s Orphan and Vulnerable Children Programme, wrote the NGSA exams and all were successful, including three students who secured spots in the top 150, the release said.
“The schools run by the Central Islamic Organisation of Guyana continue to deliver education at the highest level. The NGSA results for 2023 is evidence of this. It would be remiss to not acknowledge the assistance CIOG received from the Government of Guyana and the Ministry of Education. Their distribution of “We Care” cash grants for school uniforms, among other donations, are a direct outcome of the results our learners achieved,” CIOG said in the release.
It noted that the organisation wished to express its “profound gratitude and sincere thanks to the Ministry of Education, kind sponsors and donors who continue to support the education of the future of our country. It is not only impressive that these pupils have excelled but that their experience at CIOG was one that made them able to fulfil their dreams and realise their full potential.”
CIOG said it is of the view that investment in children’s education is the best investment and no child should be left behind because of poverty.
