The Chattogram Education Board has announced that the postponed Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) and equivalent examinations for 2026 will resume on July 27. The decision was confirmed in a notice issued on July 23, following weeks of suspension caused by continuous heavy rainfall and flooding across several districts under the board’s jurisdiction.

Earlier, the examinations in Chattogram, Cox’s Bazar, Rangamati, Khagrachhari, and Bandarban were postponed multiple times due to worsening flood conditions, disrupted road communications, and safety concerns for students. The board had eventually declared an indefinite suspension before reassessing the situation.

According to the latest notice, the remaining exams will be held in coordination with other education boards following the previously announced schedule. The first exams to be held on July 27 include Political Science and Good Governance (1st paper), Biology (1st paper), Food and Nutrition (1st paper), and Business Organization and Management (1st paper). The board has requested all examinees, center secretaries, and institution heads to complete necessary preparations. A separate notice will later announce new dates for the postponed practical exams.
