The Ministry of Education announced the procedures that will be in place for the schools’ final exams for the first semester of the year 2021/2022, which begin on Dec. 8.

The procedures included dividing the classrooms of schools that operate on a rotation system into two groups (A / B), where each group contains about half of the school’s classrooms.

Tests for these two groups are held as follows:

The test session for group (A) will be from 8:00am until 10:00am, and the test session for group (B) will be from 10:30am to 12:30pm, provided that the tests of students infected with the coronavirus are postponed to be held in person at the beginning of the second semester.

The Ministry noted that these measures come in the interest of the health and safety of students and school staff, in accordance with the health protocol adopted in dealing with the pandemic.
