The President directed the officials to suspend the evaluation of the Grade 5 Scholarship Examination answer scripts for two weeks.

He took this decision following a meeting yesterday afternoon (30) at the Presidential Secretariat between a group of parents who had protested over the recent Grade 5 Scholarship Examination question paper issue.

Additionally, the parents requested that the President consider holding a re-examination for the first paper of the Grade 5 Scholarship Examination, as they claimed eight questions, not three, were leaked prior to the exam.
