Don’t let failure win


Friday, Dec 29, 1967. We had just received our Lower Certificate of Education (LCE) exam results.

We were the first batch that did not sit for the Secondary School Entrance Exam at the end of Standard Six (now known as Year Six) in 1964, so the LCE was our first real test. It was also the first time Mathematics was a compulsory subject to pass.
