The Minister of Education and Human Development, Conceita Sortane, urged examinees to refrain from using non-approved tactics in the final exams under way since yesterday throughout the country.
Sortante was speaking on Monday at the Josina Machel High School in Maputo, where she witnessed the beginning of the Grades 10 and 12 secondary education examinations involving 264,652 and 126,617 students respectively nation-wide.
