Caretaker Minister of Education Abbas Halabi announced on Thursday in an interview with MTV that he is preparing to “cancel the Brevet exams” this year, due to the war that has been going on since October 8 on the southern front between Hezbollah and Israel, preventing many students, particularly those living in this region, from pursuing their studies in a favorable environment.
Instead, Halabi announced that he would “subject ninth-graders to a standardized test administered by the country’s schools.”
In this context, he reassured that “we will maintain the level of education in Lebanon and will not close any schools.”
