North Kivu 2: a batch of 2025-2026 school reports already available

On Friday, February 27, 2026, the North Kivu 2 Educational Province received the first crates containing report cards for the 2025–2026 school year. This initiative is part of the Ministry of National Education and New Citizenship’s commitment to ensuring organized and transparent management of school documents in educational institutions.

Supervising the delivery, the director of the North Kivu 2 Educational Province (PROVED) welcomed the prompt arrival of these report cards, noting that their early availability will allow schools to better prepare for student academic monitoring.

“This initiative demonstrates the government’s commitment, through the Ministry of National Education, to making the proper organization of the school year a priority. Thanks to this first batch, schools now have the essential tools for evaluating and supporting students in a timely manner,” he stated. 

The PROVED also commended the involvement of the ministry’s central administration, particularly the General Secretariat and the General Inspectorate of National Education, which supported the implementation of this initiative.

The receipt of report cards in the North Kivu 2 educational province illustrates the ministry’s efforts to improve the functioning of the education system and ensure better-organized learning conditions for students.

This gradual distribution of report cards is expected to continue in other educational provinces across the country, in accordance with the program established by the ministry.

Keeping Schools Open Despite Insecurity

Since 2025, Raïssa Malu, Minister of State for National Education and New Citizenship, has directed her ministry’s efforts in North Kivu toward maintaining the education system despite ongoing insecurity.

For example, the ministry has ensured the continuity of school activities in war-affected areas, maintained free primary education for displaced children, and organized regular national assessments.

In this context, preliminary exams for the State Examination were organized for self-taught candidates, allowing the school calendar to be maintained and preventing final-year students from losing a year.

These various measures are part of an overall strategy aimed at guaranteeing the right to education throughout the country and maintaining the normal functioning of the education system even in areas where the security situation is difficult.
