Examination Reslts SVN’s remarkable and consistent success has been due to the dedication of the great teaching and administrative staff and the hard work and discipline of our students and their parents. SVN’s student population comes largely from students whose parents are from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Yet, SVN is able to transform the students to achieve amazing success, even better than Guyana’s elite “Georgetown public school” such as Queens College, that draws the top 1% of students based on admission criteria scores. SVN does not exclude based on admission exam scores.

Vamanadev Upendra Hiralall tops Guyana at CAPE and makes history CAPE, the equivalent of Advanced Level at Oxford or Cambridge or London Universities, is a two-year course for each subject. In the Caribbean, each subject, with the exception of Caribbean Studies and Communication Studies, has two units. Over the two years Vamanadev studied for 9 subjects: Biology, Caribbean Studies, Communication Studies, Computer Science, Environmental Science, Information Technology, Physics, and Pure Mathematics for an equivalent of 16 units (subjects) – a record achievement for a CAPE student or any Advanced Level student in the history of such exams. In all, Vamanadev scored 13 grade ones, with 12 distinctions, and 3 grade twos and he has been placed number one in Guyana. Some people are of the view that Vamana's performance may have superseded every other performance in the history of CAPE in Guyana, and arguably in the Caribbean as a whole.
