EnviroServ proudly congratulates Vulumzi Senior Secondary School on its exceptional performance in the 2025 National Senior Certificate (NSC) examinations, reflecting both academic excellence and the power of sustained community partnership.
The National Senior Certificate (NSC) results were officially released on 12 January 2026 by the Minister of Basic Education, Siviwe Gwarube.

Behind these results are 192 determined learners who sat for the examinations. Their hard work paid off with 93 Bachelor passes, 72 Diploma passes, and 19 Higher Certificate passes — outcomes that open doors to further study, skills development, and meaningful opportunities.
A total of 192 learners sat for the examinations, with excellent outcomes across qualification levels:
