Rabuka also shared his journey and how he had failed his University entrance examination.

Rabuka says he had this discussion with the then Education Minister and former teachers.
“The definition of the school dropout then fitted me perfectly.” I didn’t go on to tertiary education. I failed the university entrance exam not once but twice. So I told them to persevere for those who had failed; some of them could become ministers, even prime ministers.”

The Prime Minister has also congratulated the school for performing well in their examinations.
