Education Ministry “Exams Will Be Held from 13th June”

The education ministry is sticking to its guns to hold general examination in the country despite rejections by 12 schools umbrellas.

The deputy minister Mr. Hamud has told Goobjoog that the umbrellas has backtracked previous agreement to hold joint examination by the ministry “Every time we reach this stage and ask them the data about of their students so as to roll out the examination they step back” said the minister.

“There is no going back, we took that resolution and we would hold the examination” he adds.

The umbrellas accused the government of jumping the process by not passing the required laws in the parliament for private education before such arrangements could be implemented.

They control some 817 schools country wide and the government has no control whatsoever in the schools, but the deputy minister is arguing that they they invited the individual schools to sit for the exams, not the umbrellas.

The armed rebel group Alshabab has previously threatened to attacks schools if the government get involved.
