2021 has been full of activities with tight schedules but very rewarding for MANEB. This year alone MANEB has processed and successfully administered five examinations.

Security is paramount in national examinations .To ensure provision of maximum security for the examinations, MANEB has a fully-fledged security department which works hand in hand with national security agents during processing and administration of the national examinations. For decades MANEB has largely partnered with Malawi Police Service (MPS) in security provision during processing and administration of examinations but following the 2020 MSCE examination leakage a decision was made to co-opt the Malawi Defense Force (MDF) to complement MANEB’s and MPS’s efforts during the re-administration of the examination . The involvement of the national security agents yielded positive results since the re-administered examination was leakage free.
