PETALING JAYA: The education ministry will consider the National Union of Teaching Profession’s (NUTP) call to release the results of the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination earlier than May 27.

Deputy education minister Wong Kah Woh said the ministry would consider NUTP’s proposal for SPM results to be announced on May 23, in view of the upcoming school holidays.

He said this would be thoroughly discussed with stakeholders before a decision is made, Bernama reported.

“The ministry will consider the views of all sectors. Give us some time to make a decision or issue a media statement on the matter,” he was quoted as saying.

Yesterday, the ministry said the results of the 2023 SPM exam would be released on May 27. Some 395,870 candidates had registered for the examination.

However, NUTP called for the results to be released earlier, saying this would allow teachers to go for their term break from May 24 to June 2.

It said releasing the results on May 27 would affect any plans teachers might have to visit their home towns or go on vacation.
