Whether or not students are asked to redo Year 1 or are not promoted to Year 2 is determined by engagement not academic achievement, unless they are doing so badly that we feel it is not in their best interest to continue, that is they would gain more from another course as we are an open access school and do not select on academic ability.
Prior to the recommendation for a student to repeat year 1 we consult the student's teacher and the student's school. The decision is made jointly and in agreement with the school and Pamoja Academic and School Services Departments.
