Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) 2023 is set to take place much earlier than the previous year, starting from 5 December 2023.
For reference, SPM 2022 was held from 30 January to 15 March this year due to the late start to the academic calendar since the Covid-19 pandemic.
While no official statement has been issued by the Ministry of Education (MOE), the whole schedule of SPM 2023 was recently published on the official website of MOE’s Education Board on Friday (18 August).
Accordingly, as reported by Astro Awani, Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek elaborated that an official statement will be released soon, though she neither confirm nor deny the SPM 2023 schedule published on the aforementioned site.
Based on the published schedule, SPM 2023 will take place from 5 December 2023 until 7 March 2024. The first exam would be Physics Paper 3 or Practical Science Examinations for Physics (Code 4531/3) which will commence on 5 December.
This will be followed by the Bahasa Melayu Speaking Examination on 8 January. As for written examinations, they will commence with the Bahasa Melayu paper on 30 January 2024.
