Helping students prepare for an external examination is more than just paying or registering them for it.

Most schools go a long way to help get them ready through mock exams, and so on.

Although this strategy has been effective to an extent, the issue of failing the WAEC (West African Examination Council) examination is still one of the problems that has not been completely eradicated and this is a factor that has prevented many from producing top-notch students that can comfortably compete with others around the world.

While on the one hand, failing WAEC could be from the student, that is, it could stem from so many factors, a few of which are:

Lack of Motivation: At Edves, we believe no child is lazy. Instead, we believe that children are very delicate people. They require motivation to give their best efforts. While for some it is less, others might need more. Also, when they will be at home during periods like the election, if they are not able to practice on their own and get feedback immediately, they might not take it seriously.

Poor attendance: When a student is consistently absent from mathematics class for example, he or she may miss out on the tiny details that can’t exactly be written in a notebook that would help them practice well for their external exams.

Lack of adequate support from teachers and parents: Support could come in any form, it could be physical, financial (paying for tools to help them practice), and emotional. A blend of these is always the best to get them going.

On the other hand, whether as a teacher, parent, or stakeholder, everyone has a part to play to help our students and children perform excellently in their forthcoming examinations. Let’s help them stay motivated, monitor them, and give them all the support they would be needing.

At Edves, we know how important it is to your school’s reputation when students perform well and of course how proud you’ll be as a parent when your child makes good grades.

Putting all of these into consideration, we came up with a solution called PQ by Edves. With this, students get to practice for WAEC or JAMB on their smartphones or laptop, get their results immediately from experts and know areas where they need to improve. Join our waitlist here
