What Are Form Six Results?

Form Six results are the official marks given to students who sat for the ACSEE exams. These exams are conducted by the National Examinations Council of Tanzania (NECTA) and are usually taken by students completing their two years of A-Level secondary education (Form 5 and Form 6).

The results show how a student performed in each subject and give an overall division—Division One, Two, Three, Four, or Fail.

These results help determine:

  • University admissions

  • College applications

  • Government sponsorships (HESLB loans)

  • Job or training opportunities (for those who don’t proceed to higher education)

When Are Form Six Results Released?

Form Six exams are usually held around May or early June. After marking and verification, the results are released around late June or early July.

For example, in recent years:

  • 2023 results were released on July 4, 2023

  • 2022 results came out on July 5, 2022

  • 2021 results were announced on July 10, 2021

So, if you’re waiting for results, expect them between the last week of June and the first week of July.

But keep in mind — NECTA doesn’t usually announce the exact release date in advance. They simply publish the results when ready.

How Do You Know When the Results Are Out?

There are a few signs that Form Six results are out:

  1. NECTA official website updates – This is the number one place. As soon as results are live, NECTA posts a link on their homepage.

  2. Social media buzz – People start sharing the link on platforms like WhatsApp, Twitter, and Facebook.

  3. News outlets – Sites like Mwananchi, Daily News, and Millard Ayo usually break the news quickly.

  4. School notices – Some schools help students access the results or post them on noticeboards.

If you’re a student, parent, or teacher, keep an eye on these sources around late June.

Where Can You Get Form Six Results?

The safest and most direct way is through NECTA’s official website.
