The Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and the Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) examinations for 2022 will be held in June and August this year respectively.
“The reviewed syllabuses of Bangla second, English first and second papers of the SSC and HSC exams for 2022 have also been rearranged after being more edited,” said Professor Tapan Kumar Sarker, chairman of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board.
The SSC and the HSC exams were held in November and December last year.
The government delayed the exams as the number of COVID-19 infections was on the rise. The exams were held on group subjects with reduced marks to shorten the duration of the tests.
Usually, the SSC and equivalent exams are held in February and HSC in April each year.
Meanwhile, in-person classes at school and colleges for fully vaccinated students across the country will restart from Tuesday.
Earlier, the government announced the closure of all the schools and colleges across the country from January 21 to February 6 amid a surge in COVID-19 cases due to the dominant Omicron variant.
The shutdown was later extended till February 20 considering the safety of the students.
