All candidates and oral examiners will be required to wear surgical masks during the upcoming PSLE and Singapore-Cambridge General Certificate of Education (GCE) oral examinations.

"As facial expressions will not be taken into consideration for the assessment, candidates will not be disadvantaged by the wearing of surgical masks during oral examinations," added the joint statement by the Ministry of Education and Singapore Examinations and Assessment Board on Wednesday .

This also applies to those on medical leave due to acute respiratory Infection, or are on approved absence, as a result of staying in same household with members – aged six and above – who have flu-like symptoms. Common Last Topics will also be removed from the upcoming PSLE, in a move to "support the wellbeing of our P6 students, who also have to familiarise themselves with the new PSLE Achievement Level scoring system", said the statement.
