KABOYCE, ST MARK’S, ST THERESA’S SHINE

MBABANE – He found the ship already cruising steadily and his task was to ensure that it did not sink.
KaBoyce Head teacher Lungelo Nhlengetfwa did just that as the school has become the best of them all in the 2017 Junior Certificate (JC) Examination as was the case in 2016.

When he took over the reins almost two years ago, he knew that a lot was expected from him as he was taking over from someone who had transformed the school into being one of the best in the country.

Before he came in, Simon Mthunzi was the head teacher and set high standards. It seems Nhlengetfwa was not only able to catch up, but is proving that indeed a new broom sweeps even cleaner.
KaBoyce has topped in the JC results by obtaining a 100 per cent pas rate with 64 Merits, 33 First Class passes, 10 Second Class passes, no Third Class passes and no failures.

In an interview after the results were released yesterday, Nhlengetfwa said he was excited with the performance and that it was what he expected as the pupils were brilliant and had the support of dedicated teachers.

“The pupils are brilliant and all you have to do is nurture them. Honestly, it is demanding because this is a school of high calibre. I found the boat already on cruise mode,” he said.

According to Nhlengetfwa, there were challenges when he arrived but he was not deterred.
He admitted that he was aware that there was an assumption that he would not match the standard that had been set by Mthunzi and said it made him want to work even harder.
