ISLAMABAD: A sub-committee of the National Assembly’s Standing Committee on Education on Monday reviewed the initial findings and actions taken by Cambridge International regarding the leak of three exam papers this year. The committee found the response satisfactory and appreciated the efforts made in the interest of students.

The sub-committee also recommended that affected students should be allowed to retake their exams in the October/November 2025 session without any additional fee. Members said this would help reduce the academic impact on students whose papers were leaked.

The issue of alleged paper leaks of O and A Level exams was raised earlier before the main committee, which then formed a sub-committee due to the seriousness of the matter.

In a press release last Thursday, Cambridge International stated that most of the reported paper leaks from the June 2025 exam session turned out to be false. However, it confirmed finding credible evidence of malpractice in three specific cases.

Cambridge officials shared detailed information about their activities in Pakistan. According to them, over 800 schools across the country are affiliated with Cambridge, and a total of 378,000 exam entries were made from Pakistan for the June 2025 session.

Out of these, AS and A Level candidates accounted for around 128,000 entries by 44,000 students.

During the meeting, Uzma Yusuf, Head of Cambridge Pakistan, told the sub-committee that Cambridge’s mission is to prepare Pakistani students for global opportunities. “We are committed to providing quality education and transparent exams,” she said.

She added that Cambridge exam fees in Pakistan are among the lowest in the world, and the institution has over 100 years of experience in fair grading and secure delivery of exams. Cambridge is currently partnered with 10,000 schools in 160 countries.

Cambridge reaffirmed its commitment to continue taking steps to ensure exam transparency and prevent future incidents. Its exam security team had investigated all complaints and concerns reported during the June 2025 session.

Uzma Yusuf also presented the details of Cambridge’s investigations and actions regarding the leaked papers to the sub-committee. The committee appreciated the measures taken in favor of affected students and declared the report satisfactory.

Members also noted that not counting the marks of leaked papers is a better and less harmful solution for students.
