With the MCO 2.0, the school decided to proceed with having online exams for the primary school children. As for the secondary school children, Ko-ko initially had to cram for his exams which unexpectedly was planned to be brought forward by a week, but the school still could not make it before MCO came into effect.
The school provided briefing to the children as we as parents on what would be needed for the online exams. On top of that they had 2 trial runs to see what issues may arise during the real exam day. As much as the school tried to iron out as many issues, on the exam days itself there was quite a bit of panic. One main issue was the usage of the answer sheet. The instructions were not consistent where some teachers insisted on the usage while the parents were told that either the answer sheet or question paper would be accepted. Nevertheless, the teachers involved have tried really hard to ensure everything goes as smoothly as possible. To me, the online exams were a cause of headache but the teachers have been amazing in trying to make the best of something new.
This Covid has led to many new things and changes in our lives. I really hope that all goes well soon and we can get back to as normal as possible a lifestyle soon.
