Various initiatives have been taken to cover the loss of education in Corona. The Primary Education Completion Exams (PEC) and Secondary Education Certificate (JSC) were canceled this year. Thoughts continue to upgrade schools to the next class without taking the annual exam. Online admission of the SSC pass is underway at the university. In addition to online classes at educational institutions, online exams are also held at private universities. However, about 1.4 million HSCs and equivalent candidates are at the biggest loss.
The HSC and equivalent exams were scheduled to begin on April 1 of this year. But the Ministry of Education was forced to suspend the test for coronavirus. After that, five and a half months passed but it was not possible to take the HSC exam. Students have no contact with universities at this time. The students have given up many things because they could not continue with the preparation. Most of the students dropped out of school.
Educators say that almost everything in the country is open except educational institutions. Students also go out of the house regularly. So the government may think about taking the HSC test according to the health rules. Examiners must ensure social distance when entering and leaving the center. The number of centers should be increased three to four times. Students must also be seated in the classroom ensuring a distance of three feet. Hand washing should be done upon entering the center. Everyone, including teachers and students, must wear a face mask. In other words, all types of hygiene can be tested. However, in the current situation, academics are against opening schools.
Former president of the Commission for University Scholarships, Professor. Abdul Mannan told Kaler Kanth: “It remains to be seen if a way can be found as soon as possible to take the HSC exam. The number of centers can be increased. Students can be divided into two groups and the same test can be done in two groups of questions in the morning and in the afternoon. It will be less complicated. In my personal opinion, it is not necessary to run all the tests. The ones that are most important can be taken. ‘ In the current situation in India, an initiative has been taken to conduct a ‘Pre-Medical-NEET Test’ for medical college students. Approximately 17 to 18 lakh students will participate in it. Classes IX to XII will begin on September 21 in India. However, the issue of joining the class was left to the students and parents. Pakistan has also announced the gradual opening of educational institutions from September 15. In addition, higher education institutions have been opened in many countries.
Former education secretary Nazrul Islam Khan said: “I believe that the HSC exam can be performed according to health standards. How long can you wait? However, the number of centers will have to be increased. Apart from this, the test can be carried out in accordance with the rules of hygiene.
Students are known to enter college in September-October. It was not possible to take the HSC exam at this time this year. As a result, students will have to study for about five months. So if there are more delays in taking the HSC exam, then the session jam in higher education will be longer.
According to the source, boards of education are working on the number of classrooms that may be needed if students take the ‘Z’ shaped exam. If two students sit on the first bench in a room, one will sit on the second bench. To do this, several sub-centers are being created under each center. In other words, the boards of education are also preparing to take the exam by maintaining social distance. And the Ministry of Education is waiting for a high-level decision. However, sources from the Education Ministry said a decision has yet to be made on when the HSC and equivalent exams will take place due to health risks in Corona. This test will be taken at least 15 days after the publication of the new calendar.
Dhaka Board of Education Chairman Prof. “We are expecting the situation to improve even more,” Ziaul Haque told Kaler Kanth. Other than this, we have no other choice at this time. Because the safety of the students is the most important thing to us.
