Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka has announced that the Cabinet has decided to initiate public consultations regarding the possible reintroduction of scaling in national examinations at both primary and secondary school levels. In his statement, PM Rabuka highlighted that a final decision on reinstating scaling will be made following these consultations. The scaling system was first introduced in 1979 for the Fiji Seventh Form Certificate Examination, and in 1989 for the Fiji School Leaving Certificate Examination, serving as a method to ensure equivalence among subjects. However, this system was discontinued in 2015.
