Jamaica’s Promise – Simoya Cunningham of Lucea Primary School

12-year-old Simoya Cunningham of Lucea Primary School in Hanover defied the odds to sit this year’s Primary Exit Profile (PEP) examinations. For most of her grade six year, Simoya struggled with poor health that landed her in the hospital for extended periods, which is where she sat the Ability Test. Principal of Lucea Primary School, Yasmin Anderson-Jackson, expresses her delight at Simoya’s results, describing her as a model student.
