should appreciate the effort all these small boys and girls take to get through the grade 5 exams. immaterial of if they get through or not we as a nation should have a plan to take the courage they show to face the exam to make them belief in a dream and to learn to fall and get up with more courage. This will give our nation a great set of youngsters. if we crush their hope when they fail it is the future of the nation as well that we crush. Just food for thought
