The Tamil Nadu government has officially announced the postponement of the half-yearly examinations for state-run and government-aided schools to December 13. Originally scheduled to commence on December 11, the decision to defer the exams was made across the state under the directives of Chief Minister M K Stalin, according to an official release. The School
Education Department has released a revised timetable, rescheduling the exams for classes 6 to 12 to take place from December 13 to 22.
This adjustment comes in the aftermath of cyclone 'Michaung,' which prompted the declaration of a holiday from December 4 to 9 for schools in Chennai, Chengelpet, Kancheepuram, and Tiruvallur districts.
