Ministry of Education Science and Technology (MoEST) has denied rumours hovering on social media claiming that the Malawi School Certificate of Education (MSCE) examination which are scheduled to commence today have leaked.

On Monday the social media was awash with Biology practical paper and physics paper with answers in it and Biology practical is supposed to be taken this morning.

But reacting to the news the Ministry said:”2020 MSCE Exams have not leaked, Ministry can confirm. Anything else falls in category of Fake News. Students are encouraged to continue studying diligently.”

The examination were cancelled in November last year following massive leakage of the question papers.

The development led to the suspension of Gerald Chiunda, Executive Director at the Malawi National Examinations Board.

President Dr Lazarus Chakwera directed the Board to re-administer the examination not later than January 2021.
