The minister confirmed that the decision lies with the Cabinet, whether to approve the draft or not.
The minister called on the administration and candidates to continue their preparations for the exams, as they are the official means of assessment at the national level. She also mentioned that the curriculum development project will include the development of assessment and measurement methods based on competencies and competency-based evaluation.
