It is indeed that Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) students could not take preparations as educational institutions remained closed since March.

So, we are thinking about holding examinations based on a short syllabus. We have asked the National Curriculum and Textbook Board (NCTB) to make a syllabus in this regard.  

We are ready to face any challenges in the coming days. We will try to stay in touch with our students throughout 2021, and to this end, we will do everything.
