Education commentators have joined parents who have asked the Malawi National Examinations Board (MANEB) to extend the registration of candidates for 2021 PSLCE, JCE and MSCE examinations.
Kondowe: Parents request is valid
According to a communication from MANEB, it states that registration starts on 22nd February and ends on 8th March 2021.
“This is to inform all that registration of candidates for 2021 PSLCE, JCE and MSCE examinations in all MANEB registered examination centres starts on 22nd February and ends on 8th March 2021,” reads the communication from MANEB.
However, this has not gone well with most of the parents as they said the time allocated is not enough for them to search for registration money considering the fact that schools have just been re-opened.

Kondowe said in the same circumstances ought to have been given the same treatment.
“If the Kamuzu Academy grounds are at all viable would it have made sense to allow all students who were due for examinations regardless of wether they are administered outside Malawi or within Malawi,” said Kondowe.
