Taung-Gabobidiwe High School is the only high school that reached 100% pass rate in matric in Dr Segomotsi Ruth Mompati.

A high school in Buxton, East of Taung scooped number one position in the district after being on a trap last year.

Gabobidiwe High School principal Tshepiso Mvula told our crew that he was targeting 80+ pass rate, but the school outdid itself by achieving 100% pass rate.

Our crew went on to speak to some of students at Gabobidiwe High and shared their feelings:”I am very excited and pround of our school after we managed to escape a trap that our school was in. I dedicate our achievements to our teachers who worked tirelessly even though we had some hiccups along the way” Ogodiseng Pelege said.

Pelege said even though he did not apply for any university, he is interested in studying Sports Management.

Rebaone Mothibuseng told TDN that she applied at University of North West and she is planning to study teaching.

“I want to become a teacher because the hardship our shools are going through especially in rural areas. I would love to see more improvements on education system and hopefully we can play our part” said Mothibuseng.

Mvula said 22 of his students achieved batchelor degree qualifications and other 32 pass with diploma.

Magadi Gaothuse is one of those who achieved Batchelor degree pass and said she wil persue a career as a Social Worker.

The community shared the same sentiment and the excitement was the order of the day.-TDN
