Tari students miss out on grade 8 exams How ?

More than 100 grade eight Hiwanda primary students did not sit their exams last year in Tari, Hela Province.
Former Hiwanda primary school headmaster Samson Emola said yesterday that the school was burnt down to ashes last year between August-September in a tribal fight and more than 100 student (could not remember exact number of students) who could sit for their exams.
He said that the southern highlands provincial education advisers and Tari district administration did nothing to secure space in neighbouring schools for the students to sit for the exams.
“My daughter who was supposes to sit for her grade eight exams was left missing and tried to negotiate with Watle Primary school-a nearby school to sit for her exam, the school charged me K1000 so I left my daughter at home,” He said.
