Answer 1

Answer:

See the letter below

Explanation:

Oxfords International School,

23 Umuatako Road,

Aba.

July 14, 2020.

The District Education Officer,

Secondary Education Management Board,

Aba.

Sir,

COMPLAINT OF UNFAIR DENIAL OF ADMISSION

I humbly write in order to appeal to you sir in my quest for redress with respect to unfair denial of admission into class X irrespective of my impressive performance at the 2020 BECE examination conducted on March 4, 2020.

I sat for the BECE examination on the said date at Oxfords International School Aba where I passed all my subjects at credit level as required by the Abia State Ministry of Education. I was among the four students in my school who received the principal's merit award for excellent performance at the 2020 BECE examination.

However, when the placement list of candidates who were qualified for admission into class X in schools across Aba district was published, my name was missing from the list. I quickly contacted the principal of my school, Dr. Moses Ineh. He in turn, relayed my complaint to the head of school exams, Aba district Education Commission. The response of the head of school exams was disheartening. He said that I will have to repeat class IX since he has concluded the posting of students to high schools in Aba district and has sent a comprehensive list of successful candidates to Abia state ministry of education.

Please sir, I humbly request that you use your good office to intervene in this matter by directing the head of school exams to post me to one of the high schools in Aba district so that I can continue my education together with my classmates. It will not be a fair treatment if I am forced to repeat this examination next year irrespective of my impressive performance this year. I have attached a copy of my result notification to this letter.

Thanks in anticipation of your positive response.

Yours Faithfully,
