The Punjab government issued the matric and intermediate date sheet of the year 2021. Majority of SSC and HSSC students are facing difficulty over the delay in the annual board examination. They are facing difficulty because of the differences between the Punjab Boards Committee of Chairmen (PBCC) and the Education Ministry. On Thursday, PBCC issued a date sheet for the fifth time. However, the students are demanding online assessments.
Not only this, the private school associations also expressed dissatisfaction over the ministry and the committee’s decision regarding the marks formula for the exams.
PBCC kept thousands of students enrolled with boards of intermediate and secondary education (BISEs) in a quandary. According to the new schedule decided during a PBCC meeting in Sargodha, the board exams will commence on July 10. A large number of students, most of them from public schools, are still not ready for exams, demanding them to be delayed by at least three months as their courses had not been completed.
