And while it will surely be a trying time for the parents of these
100,000 students who have been out of school since March, one thing
they won't have to worry about is the PSE for standard six students.
The Chief Education Officer kinds confirmed that the PSE is on pause:

"Will the PSE still be administered this year?"
Carol Babb - Chief Education Officer
"The PSE will not be...it did, it wasn't administered last year, and we
doubt very much that it will be administered next year because we are
working under not so normal circumstances, right? Children have been out
for so long, we don't know when school will open, so it's quite unlikely
that we may not have PSE next year. But, it's not finalized."
