Academic activities will immediately commence following the conclusion of the GCE Ordinary Level Examinations this year for students wishing to pursue the Advanced Level, Minister of Education Susil Premajayantha said.
Minister Premajayantha said that the measures are being taken as part of the Education Ministry’s efforts to cover the school academic syllabus that had been delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
He further said that it was also part of the Ministry’s measures to normalise the timeframe of state school examinations, such as the GCE Ordinary and Advanced Level Examinations in the future.
The Education Minister added that such steps were also being taken to prevent delays in university admissions for school children. (Newswire)
