Public examinations will be held on consecutive days barring holidays to prevent question paper leakage, the Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid said.
“There won’t be any gap during examinations except holidays. The students will have to prepare themselves reading at home or halls, and pursuing teachers’ lectures in classes,” he said while speaking on the probe report about HSC question paper leakage on Wednesday.
The education minister said that it would not be wise to hold examinations lasting for one and a half months.
The way the examinations are held should be changed, Nahid said.
He said that during their time, examinations were completed in five days only.
“We will definitely change the method of examinations. They won’t be held in the way they have been held so far.
“We will accept the suggestions given by the probe body. Opinions of relevant people will be sought on the extent of change,” the minister said.
The authorities had postponed the HSC English 2nd paper examination of the Dhaka Board on Apr 9 following allegation of a question paper leakage.
The next day, the education ministry formed a seven-member body to investigate the leakage.
The committee had been asked to file its report in seven days but it sought more time in phases.
