The Cambridge Board has withdrawn the decision of average grading on the paper that was canceled on May 10, 11 and 12 and announced to conduct re-examinations in October.
After a meeting of other stakeholders, including the Country Director of Cambridge Education, the Director of the British Council and the heads of private schools, it was announced to take back all the canceled papers instead of the average marking on the canceled papers.
According to the Federal Ministry of Education, no fee will be charged for re-taken papers, but reassessment and re-evaluation will be done in cases in which there is a huge difference in grades between schools and Cambridge.
Such cases will be referred to Cambridge by the schools, 80 percent of the cost of assessment and reproduction will be borne by the school and 20 percent by the parents, but as a result, if the grades change, the entire fee will be refunded.
The Federal Ministry of Education will contact the provincial governments and vice-chancellors of universities to suggest measures for ease of admission to school children.
Earlier, the Cambridge Board had decided to make average marking on the canceled Papers of A level after the May 9 incidents in Pakistan, which was rejected by students in different cities of the country.
