Earlier this month, the government decided to abolish the PT3 examinations in favour of school based assessments to determine students’ performance in their studies.

But how will this sudden abolishment in the middle of the school year impact school operations? Are teachers ready to rejig their syllabus to accommodate school based assessments?

In a special Breakfast Grille panel, we discuss this with former deputy education minister YB Teo Nie Ching and Conrad Fernandez of the education service provider, LeapEd.
