The new routine of this year’s Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and its equivalent examinations will likely be announced on Sunday.

Education Minister Dipu Moni will hold a press conference in this regard at 1pm, said Abul Khair, public relations officer of the ministry.

The SSC and its equivalent examinations, under all the education boards scheduled to begin on June 19, were postponed due to the flood situation in the country on June 17.

Earlier, it was deferred for about four months because of the coronavirus pandemic. Usually, the SSC exams take place in February.

On July 6, Dipu Moni said the flood-affected students who lost their textbooks will be given new books.

Once the distribution of books is completed, the students need a little time to prepare themselves for the exams, she added.

The government will hold the postponed SSC exams only after handing over a new textbook to flood victim students, the minister added.
