British Council to retake A level exams cancelled in May

British Council will retake A-level exams that were cancelled in May.

Cambridge International Country Director for Pakistan Uzma Yousuf confirmed on Friday that the British Council on Friday said that A-level students will be allowed to retake exams — which were cancelled earlier in May due to PTI protests — free of charge.

Only those students whose exams were cancelled on May 10, 11 and 12 can retake [the exams] free of cost in November.

The development came after today’s meeting that was held at the Education Ministry with Yousuf and heads of private schools in attendance.

 

As reported, the Cambridge had taken the decision taking into account the students’ complaints about unsatisfactory results of A-Level exams.

most of the Pakistani students among 45,000 candidates, who received their Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) AS and A-Level results last week, were terribly disappointed. With a few As and Bs, it practically rained Cs, Ds, Es and Us.
