A School head teacher  has  commended the re-entry policy in Zambia for  yielding positive results across the country.

Katuta Boarding School Head Teacher Friday Chanda said before 1991, once a girl dropped out of school because of  pregnancy, it would mark the end of her enrollment in any education system.

Mr Chanda said the scenario  led to early marriages and usually through difficult circumstances such as forced marriages.

“The re-entry policy in Zambia has yielded positive results across the country” Chanda said
