The Directorate of Primary Education has announced new guidelines for the primary student scholarship testing. Class V pupils may take the examination if they rank among the top 40 percent based on their first terminal assessment results. December will host the examination across four potential dates spanning from the 21st through the 24th. Eligible participants come from government primary institutions, PTI-affiliated checking facilities, and primary divisions within government secondary establishments. The assessment covers Bengali, English, Primary Mathematics, and combined Bangladesh Global Studies with Primary Science.
Each subject carries 100 total points, with candidates receiving 2.5 hours for completion. Primary scholarship testing ceased in 2009 when authorities introduced the Primary Education Completion examination system. Officials planned to restore the program in 2022 but delayed implementation while offering alternative scholarship programs. Merit-based awards and financial assistance for disadvantaged students continued during this period. The current interim administration will revive this scholarship opportunity after years of absence.
