President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu has extended his heartfelt wishes for success to the 8,364 students sitting the SSC O’Level examinations this year, using the occasion to reinforce his administration’s commitment to revitalising the education sector.
In a post shared on X, the President offered prayers and encouragement to the thousands of students entering examination halls across the country, acknowledging the months of hard work and preparation that led to this moment. He expressed hope that students would navigate the exams with clarity and confidence, delivering performances that would make their families and schools proud.
“May every child sitting this year’s O’Level exams find ease in their answers, joy in their results, and rise as a future pillar of our beloved nation,” President Muizzu said, urging students to pursue academic excellence with the goal of serving the Maldives with distinction.
Beyond his message of encouragement, the President’s remarks also highlighted the government’s ongoing efforts to address longstanding challenges in the national education system. Acknowledging recent concerns over declining pass rates in A-Level exams, the administration has initiated a series of reforms focused on improving foundational education and upgrading teaching standards.
One of the key priorities, according to the President, is enhancing the quality of primary education to ensure students are well-prepared as they advance through the school system. Investments are being made to strengthen teacher training and to bring a student-first approach to school management — a move expected to boost performance and foster long-term academic success.
President Muizzu’s vision for education underscores his broader agenda of national development through youth empowerment, innovation, and strengthened institutions. As O’Level exams begin, his message not only serves as a morale boost for students, but also as a reaffirmation of the state’s promise to elevate education in the Maldives.
