“Results for pupils who sat for Grade 9 and GCE examinations will be announced in parliament this Friday,” Mr Mabumba said.

And Mr Mabumba has advised school authorities in the country, against chasing away pupils on account of not paying examination fees.

The Minister said pupils should be allowed to sit for their examinations, after which head-teachers will then be compelled to pursue all pending payments.

He further announced that the government in conjunction with the Examination Council of Zambia (ECZ) has embarked on examination reforms, aimed at ensuring efficiency and effectiveness in the manner examinations are conducted.

The Minister regretted the malpractices and experiences that characterized last year’s examination, assuring that there is no room for examination malpractice this year.
