The National Examinations Council of South Sudan has announced that printing of the 2025 Certificate of Primary Education (CPE) will officially begin on Thursday, March 12, 2026.
In a public notice issued by Secretary General Dr. Athian Athian Baak, the Council informed pupils and the general public that the certification process is now underway. Candidates are required to present their index number, a copy of their birth certificate or age assessment, two passport-size photos with a white background, and a processing fee of 30,000 South Sudanese Pounds.
The Council emphasized that inquiries should be directed to the Certification Production and Control Unit under the Department of Printing and Production. Copies of the notice were also distributed to relevant departments within the NEC.
This announcement marks a key step in finalizing the 2025 examination cycle, ensuring that pupils who sat for the CPE last year will now be able to obtain their official certificates.
