Meanwhile the Malaysian Muslim Consumers Association (PPIM)
claimed the SPM Maths and Additional Maths paper were leaked.
KUALA LUMPUR: The
Malaysian Examination Board said the format of Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM)
2013 examination papers for Moral Education subject was not changed.
In a statement yesterday, the board said the format of
examination papers for the subject was still the same, where the questions were
divided into Section A and Section B.
In Section A, candidates are required to answer eight
structural questions, while in Section B, only two of the questions.
The total mark for all the questions is 100, the statement
said.
The board was refuting an online report earlier this week
which claimed SPM Moral paper format had been changed.
Last Wednesday several SPM students vented their frustrations
on Facebook after sitting for the paper.
They said they were not informed of changes to the format.
According to NUTP, teachers too were not made aware of this.
When contacted earlier an official of the Malaysian
Examination Board dismissed the claim saying they merely rephrased some
questions under the Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) Sytem,w hich was
announced under the National Education Blueprint two months ago.
