In light of the prevailing conditions, Cambridge safety-first exam cancellation has been announced for Friday, May 9, across Muzaffarabad, Mirpur, Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT), and Punjab province. The British Council and Cambridge International took this step after reviewing the current security situation to prioritise the wellbeing of students and staff.
The decision affects all Cambridge safety-first exam cancellation arrangements for O Level, IGCSE, and International AS & A Level examinations across both Cambridge Direct and British Council Schools. Officials have clarified that examinations in other parts of Pakistan will proceed as scheduled unless new developments necessitate changes. For upcoming exams on Monday, May 12, an official update will be issued by Sunday evening.
This Cambridge safety-first exam cancellation reflects the commitment of both institutions to maintaining a secure and supportive environment for all candidates. School authorities have been advised to inform students and parents proactively, while also preparing for potential adjustments to future exam schedules. Both Cambridge and British Council reassured that efforts will be made to reschedule cancelled papers where possible, without compromising academic fairness.
