GCE O/L, A/L exam results within two months

-

The Govt, under its new Education Reform plan, will release the GCE Ordinary and Advanced Level exam results within 2 months, in the coming years.

The Ministry of Education ( MoE) Annual Report 2016 states the action would enable the related candidates to apply for higher education on time.

The MoE said it is also looking at scheduling school Terms and Exam dates to suit this purpose.

Minimising the time between exams and the results will enable Ordinary Level (O/L) candidates to enrol for their Advanced Level (A/L) classes. Additional­ly, early A/ L Exam results would enable students to apply to local and overseas universiti­es, on time.

Under a medium term developmen­t goal, the MoE will ensure every child gets an early childhood education in schools. The programme will also ensure that students do not drop out from schools, with every child studying up to the GCE O/ L class and sitting for the national exam.
