FULL TEXT: PRESS Statement On June Examinations

The minister of Primary and Secondary Education, Cain Mathema has said June examinations will proceed as initially planned.

The statement is issued amid resistance from teachers and learners to the proposed dates.

They argue that the dates are inconvenient since learners had no time for studies adding that some schools have not taken enough required measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus pandemic which saw studies suspended in March.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education is adamant that necessary measures to ensure the safety of candidates and invigilators are already in place.
