“The purpose of the expo is to ensure that our grade 12 students have enough information for them to make their choices on the online school leaver forms,” she said.
She said since the expo started, more than 75 per cent of students from the school have secured placing in main stream and private institutions over the years.
This year 25 institutions, most of which were private institutions and others of the main stream, took part in the expo.
Gwaibo said the expo was coordinated by the guidance officers and Education Department.
She said 10 students each had turns to visit the 25 exhibitors.
“Students participated well in the expo and it is good as they will learn and will make the right choices according to their marks,” she said.
