Common questions

No decision has abolished it, and the current Secondary 3 year group sits it in summer 2027. Ministry decisions also point to a sitting in 2028, since the rule on completing 60% of assessments applies to it from 2027/28.

Half of each paper is multiple choice and half is written answers, by the minister’s decision of August 2026. That means practising speed and accuracy in choosing answers, and full, step-by-step written answers, within one sitting.
