CM to ask parents to help prevent cheating in matric and inter exams
Karachi:March 25:The chief minister decided on Friday to write an open letter to the parents of students who would appear in the forthcoming matriculation and intermediate examinations asking them to make efforts to prevent their children from cheating.
Murad Ali Shah was presiding over a meeting to evolve a strategy for taking preventive measures against using unfair means in the examinations.
The meeting was attended by education minister Jam Mehtab Dahar, chief secretary Rizwan Memon, principal secretary Naveed Kamran Balcoh, education secretary (schools) Aziz Uqaili and the chairpersons of educational boards.

The chief minister said it was not only the responsibility of the government, but the educational boards, examiners, invigilators and parents too had to ensure that students did not cheat in the exams. “Instead of generating ill-educated youngsters, we should produce genuinely educated children who can compete in the market, both locally and internationally, and benefit the country.”

University and Board secretary Naveed Shaikh told the chief minister that secondary school certificate examinations were starting in Sindh on March 28 and would end on April 8. Then higher secondary school certificate examinations are starting from April 28 and will end on May 15. He added that 685,672 candidates would appear in the Class-IX and X examinations and 504,907 in the Class-XI and XII examinations.
