Students of Meridian Pre-University excel in exams

ALL 76 students presented for the Diploma in Business Studies by the Meridian Pre-University examination scored 100 per cent, the Executive President of the Pre-University, Mr Tetteh Nettey has announced.
He said the examination which was conducted by the Technical unit of the Ghana Education Service (GES) was intended to test the knowledge base of students before they entered the universities.
Mr Nettey said this when he addressed an award presentation ceremony of the 2007/08 year group of the school at its premises at Odorkor in Accra.
He advised the graduating students to be good ambassadors of the school where ever they found themselves.
Mr Nettey also called on them to take their studies seriously since that was the only way they could pass their examinations and not by any foul means.
The executive president pledged the support of his administration to create an enabling environment for them to achieve good results in all their examinations and in their career.
"It is our responsibility to provide the teaching and learning materials and environment, we will do just that, yours as student was to study hard to achieve your own goals in life." He stated.
He also urged the students not to limit themselves only to their subject areas but should make themselves available for other opportunities that the school and the world offers them.
Mr Nettey particularly mentioned Information Communication Technology (ICT) saying that, even though the school had made provision for it to be studied in the school it was important in this information era. "ICT is too broad an area for you to think the school can cover all these areas within the number of years you would be spending here.
The Pre-University which was established two years ago, started with only twenty students.
Mr Nettey was delighted the students population now stands at over 700 and attributed it to the performance of the students these last two years and the dedication of teachers .
He however said that, "for us as administrators this is the the end, we have a very long way to go and would stop at nothing to achieve the objectives that we set for ourselves.
Mr Nettey also announced that the school had opportunities for busy workers to improve themselves while expanding their knowledge and also getting promotion at their work places.
