GES also dismissed reports suggesting that about 72,000 students risk not being placed, describing the claims as speculative and inaccurate.
The Service further stated that ongoing efforts to phase out the double-track system would not affect access to senior high and technical education but would instead improve the quality of teaching and learning while maintaining full access for students.
