The UK NARIC research team continues to track announcements on school closures and exam arrangements worldwide, and to publish these as announcements are made on the UK NARIC blog.

At the time of writing this news story - 30 June - the latest figures from UNESCO indicated that 112 countries have closed schools and universities at a national level. At the peak in April, 193 countries were affected by closures.

Our 29 June update to the blog includes important updates about India, including that for the all-India boards, the CISCE and CBSE Standard 12 exams that were rescheduled for the first two weeks of July have now been cancelled.

Also in India, following the recent increases in Covid-19 cases, many university exams have been cancelled, with students to be graded on the basis of previous performance and internal assessment.

In Nepal, the Secondary Education Examination has been cancelled and the National Examination Board will issue certificates based on internal assessments carried out by schools.
