The Ordinary Level exam was initially scheduled to be held in December 2020. Owing to the outbreak of Covid-19 pandemic, it was postponed several times until the date was finally fixed for March 01, 2021.
More than 622,300 candidates faced the Ordinary Level exam at 4,513 centers set up island-wide. A total of 423,746 school candidates and 198,606 private candidates turned up for the exam.
Releasing the results of the exam was delayed due to the hold-up in the practical exams of aesthetic subjects. The practical exams were initially slated to be in May, but it was postponed to late August due to the ongoing pandemic situation. Later, the teacher-principal trade union action, which began in early July, also interrupted the scheduling of the test.
