Cambridge International Education (CIE) has announced the cancellation of its AS-level mathematics exam originally scheduled for this year, due to the premature sharing of the exam paper on April 30. The affected regions include Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Pakistan, and South Asia. CIE will administer a new version of the Mathematics (9709/12) exam on June 9, 2023, as part of the June series timetable. This decision aims to ensure fair outcomes for students and maintain the integrity of the examination process. CIE confirmed that the previous exam paper could not be used for final results and will not be considered in calculated assessments. The organization emphasized that there will be no additional fees for candidates or schools, and the results will still be released on August 11, 2023. CIE acknowledged the frustration this situation has caused for students and families and is conducting an active investigation into the leak, collaborating with law enforcement agencies to identify those responsible. The organization reassured stakeholders that it regularly monitors social media for unauthorized sharing of exam materials and takes legal action against violators. CIE is committed to ensuring that students are not disadvantaged by the actions of a few individuals.
