The government will reinstate separate three groups - science, humanities, and business studies - in class IX and Class X.
In this regard, the Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education (DSHE) on Wednesday issued a directive to heads of all secondary level educational institutions throughout the country.
A DSHE directive signed by its assistant Director (Higher Secondary-2) SM Ziaul Haider Henri has asked all concerned to take necessary measures in this connection.
Introducing a new curriculum, the erstwhile Awami League government earlier scrapped the groups of Science, Humanities and Business Studies in the secondary level under the National Curriculum 2012.
Earlier in another circular issued by the education ministry said starting in 2025, students who advance to the ninth grade will follow a curriculum that includes separate science, humanities and business studies groups.
It said the science, humanities and business studies streams will be maintained for students advancing to the Class-X in 2025, who will sit for the Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and equivalent examinations in 2026.
