She described the initiative as a commitment by the District to ensure that the students excel, disclosed that a copy of the publication will be given to each of the students but has to be returned to the schools after use so that others equally benefit from it.

Solarin implored the students to take maximum advantage of the educational journal, which contains past questions for revision in preparation for their examinations, in order to excel and surpass the brilliant records of the District's performance in WASSCE over the years.

She commended all District education stakeholders for their various contributions, especially, the teachers who came together to produce the past questions for the educational journal.

Meanwhile, the Education District has held its 2020 Students' Honours Day in recognition of outstanding students who had emerged as winners at various inter-school competitions at the State, National, and International levels.
