According to the results
released on August 27, 2024, at the Rwanda Education Board (REB) headquarters,
202,021 primary school students took the exams, with girls achieving a pass
rate of 97% compared to boys' 96.6%. Key subjects such as science and
Kinyarwanda saw high performance, but improvements are needed in math and
English.
