Yesterday, the STPM 2025 results were announced. My centre, with a total of 57 students, achieved an impressive overall CGPA of 3.22, ranking fourth in Sarawak. We had 12 students who obtained straight As with a perfect 4.0 CGPA, while 27 others scored a 3.0 and above. Overall, we are incredibly pleased with their achievements.
As for my own form class, I managed a small group of seven. When I first met them on July 1, 2024, they were absolute angels—well, mostly! I initially started with about 12 students, but a few left for UiTM, IPG, polytechnics, and Swinburne, and one dropped out. I was ultimately left with a core group of seven. I am so glad they were such a pleasant bunch, making them a true joy to manage.
Let me tell you a bit more about my seven wonderful kids:
Student A: A lively and enthusiastic boy whose voice would ring through the corridors from afar. He was playful, and I always enjoyed our banter. He was a special student who needed a little extra attention to ensure he didn't fall behind. He truly appreciated our efforts and never failed to express his gratitude. He ultimately achieved a CGPA of 2.50. He is applying to UNIMAS, and we hope he gets a course he loves. Comparing his STPM results to his SPM, I dare say he has truly bloomed under our care.
Student B: A quiet girl who needed extra guidance, especially in her weaker subjects. Despite the struggles, she persevered and earned a 3.34. She applied to study computer science at UNIMAS, and I am keeping my fingers crossed for her.
Student C: A very private and quiet girl. We knew she worked best at her own pace without added pressure, so we let her be. She kept to herself, never caused any trouble, and scored a solid 3.17.
Student D: The class joker. He was highly sociable, witty, helpful, and universally liked by both teachers and peers. Highly proficient and a clever wordsmith, he was always a delight to converse with and managed a 3.0.
Student E: The aspiring teacher. He wanted to join the profession so badly and even attended two IPG interviews. Because he was such a good student and a potential top scorer, we tried hard to retain him. When he wasn't offered a spot at IPG, he stayed with us to the very end—and earned a flawless 4.0 CGPA.
Student F: The heartthrob, very popular among the girls. He performed quite well in his first semester, though he seemed a bit distracted later on. Still, he managed to secure a 3.17.
Student G: Pleasant, impeccably polite, hardworking, and exceptionally proficient in languages. I appointed her as the class monitor, and she proved to be incredibly responsible. She also scored a perfect 4.0 CGPA, which thrilled me. I had been worried because she received a B- in one subject during the semesters, but thankfully, everything turned out beautifully.
Throughout my years of service, I have rarely managed classes, as I am usually tied up with management duties. I recall managing a class of girls at my former school where we didn't quite click. However, this group was truly special. We had fantastic dynamics and chemistry, making them my best group of students ever.
Yesterday, everyone—except E and G, who were attending the state-level results announcement ceremony—came back to school to collect their documents. I hadn't seen them since February, so it felt wonderful to catch up and tease them a bit. Today, E and G finally came to collect their documents from me.
As I bid them farewell, I wished them all the best in their future endeavors. May they find great success in whatever paths they choose. This is just the beginning. They still have their whole lives ahead.
