In an important development, the Inter-Board Committee of Chairmen (IBCC) has decided to decrease the age limit for appearing in the annual examination of class 9.
According to details, the IBCC has set the minimum age of taking class 9 final papers at 12 years. Until now, the minimum age for appearing in the 9 class annual exams was 14 years.
The decision was made on Thursday in the 171st meeting of the IBCC held in Nathia Gali on Thursday with Chairman Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE), Kausar Raees, in the chair.
The meeting also agreed to decide the matter of allowing private candidates of the science group to appear in matriculation exams only after deciding the matter of participation of private science candidates in intermediate exams.
Besides, the 171st IBCC meeting also approved the appointment of Chairman Board of Intermediate Education Karachi (BIEK), Prof. Saeeduddin, as Chairman IBCC Sports Committee.
It also decided to bear the expenses of the writers who assist visually impaired candidates in the annual examination. Until now, visually impaired candidates were required to manage the expenses of such writers.

Nice and right decision
Absolutely right decision
U should increase not decrease age limit I think u people r living in wonder land u do no the situation of our Basti life and minimum income group I know because I have opened a school for these battered people they can hardly meet their end and struggle to put their children to school and that too not at any fixed age I have these children growing and not being able to do metric as most of them cross age limit snd have to leave and parents r least bothered to send them to private and an important life is thus wasted
Private schools do not have this problem as they r all competing against one another for them the minimum the better as they want to build their children’s future in what ever building blocks they can make their children climb
Or u can think of some alternate for these children
You should enroll in your own school and fix your English first and worry about these matters later. At the moment your English is the only immediate danger to students, I can not imagine you in a teaching position.
P.S: Sorry for the harsh fact, It is the truth and only immediate danger that we should all be worried about.

In my opinion, there should be no limit in acquiring education. Education can be obtained at any stage subject to availability of resources. The more the age the more students will appear in exams and our literacy rate will improve.
I think, no limit on the study for students
I think, No limit on age for the study for students until 18 age

It is not a good decision. Age limit for 9th and 10th must be 15 and sixteen years for regular candidates and for private candidate no restriction may be 8 or 10 years. Such candidates are special.
Wrong decision age less krni chahiy Jo intelligent hn read kr skty hn aagy bath skty hn unko Kun rok rhy reason nhn koi
Kindly focus on our study not on age we not want age we want a wonder education.
Absolutly Wrong decision
