Secondary Schools Entrance Examination Paper Leaked

Thursday, 6th November 1958

About 15,000 students who sat for the English secondary schools entrance examination here this week would have to take a new exam because of a leakage. Rumours of leakages and sale of papers for prices, variously fixed at $50 and $100 each, reached the Ministry of Education, before the examination started. It was on the second day of the exam that the Ministry became convinced there had been a leakage. The police were called in to investigate the leakage. Preliminary findings from the Education Ministry suggested there was leakage in all the subjects.
