The National Movement to Protect Free Education (NMPFE) yesterday called for the complete re-processing of GCE A/L results in order to do justice to the affected students.
NMPFE Convener Ven Dhamaba Amila Thera told a news conference yesterday that the education authorities should accept the responsibility humbly and see that the results are re-processed as errors had occurred when feeding the data into computers. He however said that no errors could have occurred during the marking of papers as they were done under the guidance of academics.

The Ven Thera said that the students that sat for the examinations and their parents had lost faith in the Department of Examination because of these unacceptable results. He also charged that there was a connection between this crisis and the government’s plan to set up private universities.
Coming up with several examples of confusing results put out by the Department the Thera said that a students whose Z score had been 0.9942 had been ranked first while another students whose Z score had been 1.1834 had been ranked 978.
