ZANZIBAR STANDRD SIX FORM ONE ENTRANCE EXAMINATION 2021

The Ministry of Education and Vocational Training (MoEVT) has been conducting Examinations since 1964.

Initially the MoEVT was only responsible for the Standard VIII Examinations to determine which students would progress to secondary level, and the Cambridge School Examinations were used at the secondary level.

ZEC has a commitment to develop high-quality Examinations which:

Provide an accurate reflection of student learning achievement and determine whether students have attained intended learning objectives proclaimed, in the World Declaration in Education for All, acquired ‘useful knowledge, reasoning ability, skills and values’ (UNESCO, 1990).

Provide a motivating influence for students and teachers, in particular encouraging the development of teaching and learning systems geared towards promoting underlying understanding as opposed to rote learning.

Provide a universal standard to judge performance against at the individual, school, district and national level.
