He has urged pupils to use their study time wisely.
"Learners should use this time to revise their work, attempt previous examination papers and consult with their teachers. It's also an opportunity for schools to deal with common challenges and expose learners to effective study methods to help them understand all levels of questioning in line with the standards of the National Senior Certificate Examinations."
