School administrations stressed the need for students to commit to daily attendance during the crucial week preceding the central exams, which extends from November 10 to 19, 2025, stressing that a student’s absence during this period is considered a “double absence” according to what was stipulated in the procedural guide for managing student attendance and absence, where one day’s absence without an excuse is counted as two days of absence. The departments explained in directed circulars that this week represents a decisive stage in the students’ path, as schools intensify their efforts to review lessons and enhance basic skills in preparation for the tests at the end of the first semester, with a focus on developing students’ abilities in dealing with test questions and forms in addition to reviews.
