The 2024 matriculation examination started in different regions and states, including Nay Pyi Taw yesterday.
A total of 8,428 students sat for the exam at 47 exam centres in eight townships of Nay Pyi Taw Council Area.
Daw Aye Aye Thant, deputy director of Nay Pyi Taw Education Office, said the security measures for the students during the exam period, including transport and healthcare services, are provided by cooperating with the relevant township organizations.
Headmaster U Win Khine, head of the exam centre of No 7 BEHS, said there are six exam centres in Zabuthiri Township. A total of 296 students sat for the exam at the school where I served duty. Sixteen were absent, while 280 took the exam in real-life situations. We had to work with the relevant officials to make preparations one week in advance. It is the very first exam of Grade 12, so the teachers and parents have to do it systematically.
The respective township general administrative department, healthcare workers, members of the fire brigade and security forces, and traffic police force provided security measures.
The 2024 matriculation examination will take place from 11 to 19 March. — Aung Ye Thwin/KTZH
