Education Ministry Denies Claims of Outdoor Exams Amid COVID-19 Concerns

The Ministry of National Education and Vocational Training has provided a formal denial of the allegations communicated in a press article, regarding the holding of exams under tents.

The ministry has clarified that, contrary to the claims of an online media, the current government spokesperson, Saaïd Amzazi, has never asked university presidents to develop a protocol for the conduct of exams.

The article in question would even have claimed that the minister has requested the setting up of tents for the conduct of exams, as well as the distribution of students and the provision of antiseptic products.

More than a month after the suspension of classroom lessons, following the declaration of a state of emergency in the country, the supervisory ministry has still not communicated a date for the end-of-year exams.
