Students sitting O/L & teachers in big trouble!

Education experts point out that by commencing the GCE O/L examination 2021 from the 23rd of this month when the country is facing a dire fuel crisis, it could cause grave injustice to the students sitting the examination.

According to the Examinations Department sources, there have been certain issues related to the distribution of question papers as well.

It is said that some examination center heads have used motorcycles for the distribution of question papers.

When  our reporter contacted the President of the Teachers Union Joseph Stalin regarding this matter, he said that as the examination had been postponed several times already, it was not possible to postpone it any further.

However, he said that some relief should be provided for teachers to obtain fuel.
