Lilongwe-based Bunda Christian Academy has stunned parents and guardians who sent their children and wards to this school, following its 100 percent pass rate in the 2025 Junior Certificate of Education (JCE) examinations.

For a school opened in 2023, this is not a mean feat, and as Director of Bunda Christian Academy (BCA), Pastor Martin Mbewe stated in an interview on Monday, this was a result of the students’ faith in God and discipline.

A visibly overjoyed Mbewe said since he opened the school, students and management have put God first in their endeavors, always seeking and calling upon the Lord to guide and walk with them.

“We begin every academic with prayers, asking for God’s guidance, while learners are nurtured to embrace discipline and responsible behavior as part of their academic journey,” he said.

This year, a total of 158,451 students sat for the JCE examinations nationwide, with 132,977 passing representing a 77.61 percent pass rate.

The results were officially released today in Lilongwe by the Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education, alongside the Malawi National Examinations Board (MANEB).

  1. Absolutely true. Discipline and the fear of God are the backbone of real education. From my 19 years of teaching experience, I have seen again and again that wherever discipline is upheld, excellence follows. The 100% pass rate at Bunda Christian Academy is clear evidence of this truth.

    This is not just a lesson for one school, but for the entire education system. Authorities at ministry level and our policy makers need to take this seriously. If discipline is sidelined, no amount of resources or reforms will deliver the results we desire. But if discipline and values are placed at the center of learning, our schools will consistently produce both academic excellence and responsible citizens.
