4. NON-PAYMENT OF EXAMINATION FEES. The Board has discovered some discrepancies between examination fees paid and the number of candidates presented for examinations by some schools.

The same shall be forwarded to the Ministry of Education and Sports for further action.

5. EXAMINERS DELEGATING THEIR DUTIES TO THEIR FELOW EXAMINERS. Delegating of examination duties by any examiner without consent from UNMEB Secretariat breaches section 5.2.2 (g) of the regulations governing the conduct of UNMEB Examinations. The Board reserves the right to appoint stakeholders to participate in Examinations and therefore all stakeholders are urged to bring any cases of regret concerning deployments to the attention of UNMEB Secretariat for proper handling.

6. SETTING OF OLD PAPER COMBINATIONS.

Since the transition from the old to the new paper combinations, the Board has been setting old papers alongside new paper combinations to allow students with retakes redo the papers they failed. The Board wishes to inform you that with effect from June 2020, Semester Examinations NO MORE OLD PAPAER COMBINATIONS SHALL BE SET. Any student affected by this change should be assisted to appropriately fit within the semester system and be made aware that this would be their final attempt.
