Grade 7 and 9 ECZ results 2024
Many students and parents are asking when the 2024 ECZ Grade 7 and 9 results are coming out.
In a response to this question on Facebook a week ago (see screenshot), the Examination Council of Zambia said they'll inform the public soon. However, a definite date has yet to be announced.
The best thing to do is to check the ECZ website for the latest updates and the latest on Grade 7 and 9 exam results for 2024.
Exam process must complete before results come out
From the outset, two events must take place before the exam results come out. That means that the ECZ has to finalise examination results before the Ministry of General Education officially releases the results.
Marking and processing of marks are delicate work and have to be handled with care and due diligence.
Here is what is likely to happen before the 2024 Grade 12 results are released to the public:
- Making of the Grade 12 Examinations (in progress, done by markers)
- Processing of examination marks and students' school data (pending, done by ECZ)
- An announcement that Grade 12 results are ready (pending, done by govt/education minister)
- Release of Grade 12 results (after the announcement, done by ECZ)
- Access Grade 12, 9 and 7 results (by students)
The process needs to be followed thoroughly before the final results are released online for students to access.
