SSC, equivalent exams from April 30

The Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and equivalent examinations for 2023 will begin on April 30, reports UNB.

Professor Tapan Kumar Sarkar, chairman of Dhaka Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board, revealed the schedule to the news agency Monday.

Last year, Education Minister Dipu Moni said SSC and HSC exams in 2023 will be held in April and June, respectively, based on shortened syllabus, just like the previous academic session.

SSC exams for 2022 began on September 15 last year considering the flood situation in the country. According to the government's academic calendar, SSC exams are held from February 01 and HSC from April 01 every year. However, these exams were not held on time in the past two years due to Covid-19.
