Dar es Salaam. Amid debate on the possibility of adopting Kiswahili as the medium of instruction in public schools, attention has shifted to mass failure in English language in this year’s Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE).
Results released last Thursday show that only 34.35 percent of candidates passed the subject with grades A, B and C. In contrast, the pass rate for Kiswahili was 87.91 percent.
