Students will take Junior Certificate tests Monday despite the religious holiday. Education officials said the exam dates remain unchanged for June 9th. Christopher Banda told parents and students the schedule stays the same. The government declared Monday a public holiday for Eid Ul Adha celebrations. Muslim families across Malawi will pray and follow their religious duties.

Local Government Secretary Richard Hara announced the holiday decision last week. The ministry wants Muslims to celebrate one of their most important festivals. Eid Ul Adha marks a special time for Islamic communities worldwide. People gather for prayers and help others through charity work. Officials wished all citizens a happy holiday celebration.

Education leaders decided exam schedules cannot change because of the timing conflicts. Thousands of students prepared for these important tests throughout the school year. The Junior Certificate represents a major milestone for young people. Families plan their futures around these academic results. Schools must follow the examination calendar regardless of other events.
