PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): The Ujian Pencapaian Sekolah Rendah (UPSR) is not an examination at a certification level but a checkpoint in assessing pupils' performances in literacy, numeracy and reasoning at primary level. said today.
In a statement on Monday (Sept 24) the Malaysian Examinations Board said the Education Ministry was keen to reduce emphasis on examinations and would not turn the UPSR into a higher stake assessment that could put pressure on students, schools and parents.
