A/L Examination Postponed Indefinitely Due to Severe Weather and Cyclone Conditions

The Department of Examinations has announced that the GCE Advanced Level Examination has been postponed indefinitely due to the prevailing severe weather and cyclone conditions affecting many parts of Sri Lanka. Commissioner General of Examinations stated that this decision was taken to ensure the safety of students and examination staff.

Most A/L subjects scheduled from November 10 onwards have already been conducted. However, the remaining subjects scheduled for November 27, 28, 29, 30 and December 1, 2, 3, and 5 will not be held as planned.

A new examination timetable will be released later, once the weather situation stabilizes.

Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya also addressed the situation, stating that the revised dates for the postponed subjects will be announced in due course, depending on weather improvements.
“We have made all the plans to conduct the exams in a way that will not harm you. You should prepare for the exams,” she assured, urging students to stay informed and remain prepared.

Students are advised to follow official updates for further notifications.
