The head of the police’s Property Crime Unit, Chief Inspector Mohamed Jamsheed, has claimed that an investigation into the conduct of a Cambridge Mathematics examination taken last year at a Shaviyani Atoll school concluded that an invigilator had assisted students with their papers.
The examination process at Milandhoo school was subjected to a police investigation after the University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) awarding body annulled the grades of mathematics students in the island.
”Most of the students have confessed that they copied with the help of this invigilator, who told them the answer for the last question in the paper,” said Jamsheed.
The answer given to the question by all students in the Milandhoo School Hall was consistent but wrong, which made the CIE markers raise concern.
