'Meet Parents Day for Form 3 and 5' was held yesterday at the SMJA Secondary School along Jalan Ong Sum Ping in Bandar Seri Begawan.

Parents were told to support their children in achieving success, and that teachers' work is only half the load. Parents must also cooperate in giving the best attention to their children studies.

Parents were also briefed on what to do and how to give due support to their children academically. There were also talks on the activities under the programme 'Towards Academic Excellent' and in the building of good character.

The quality of PMB and BGCE-N for 2003 has seen an encouraging turn, the school said. Of the total students enrolled in Form 4 BGCE, 48.8 percent were allocated to take O level compared to only 45 % in 2002.

These means there were more students having a better result and qualified to take the O Level examinations in 2003 than in 2002.

Besides pursuing for better academic results, the programme also had a 'Cheering up the school' project. It involved students in grooming and beautifying the school environment to produce a conducive set for learning.
