Primary Final Exam-2009 of class five began across the country from 21 November. A huge number of students have sat for their first public examination to prove their standard. The routine of the exam had been given earlier, so that the students could prepare themselves. This new system of primary final exam, a new initiative of the Primary Board, also an acid test for the education minister and his new education policy, will make our tender boys and girls competitive, challenging & courageous to face more public exams in future. It is a matter of regret that some guardians of the famous schools demanded a change in the exam routine to give their boys and girls ample time during the exams. Perhaps, they wanted to make their boys & girls commit every page of the books to memory. A question arises in this respect , “What have our students been taught all the year by our reliable teachers?” The concerned guardians should think about it. Again the real objective of this exam is to find out the talents. We convey our thanks to the authorities of Primary Education Board of Bangladesh as well as the Education Ministry for initiating the scheme.
