Summary
A major shift is coming to how kids transition from primary to secondary school—starting assessments in Class Three, not Class One, after years of project-based learning. The ministry says younger students will be prepped early, but the real evaluation won’t happen until kids are developmentally ready. This move replaces the old one-day exam with a long-term, holistic view of student progress. Parents are weighing in, and the ministry is still gathering feedback before finalizing the plan.
