The school administration has received the initial notification regarding these scheduling conflicts. I am currently preparing a formal letter to request an adjustment to the examination calendar. Thank you for your continued patience while we pursue a respectful resolution.

No there shouldn't be a test because it's hard for children to think/ remember while fasting. I believe the results won't be accurate.
I don't take part in Eid but I think its only fair that the exams are moved because the Christians get Christmas off. Religious freedom is something we all deserve.
I wouldn't like our celebration to be on exam week, because many people visit family and this is a day of celebration not exams.
Fasting is quite hard, and no one would want exams to make it more stressful. If there are exams during Ramadan, students wouldn't just be stressed and nervous, they'd be stressed, nervous, AND hungry. Not exactly the most pleasant combination if you ask me. Ramadan is a special time, let's not over complicate it with exams.
Please allow the children to celebrate their religious festival, without the stress of examinations. Best regards, Mohamed Adam
Great idea to make this even though I dont celebrate eid, no one wants to have exams in their celebration, week/day
Cool

I would definitely not want to be doing exams at Eid. It's not fair that the Christians don't have exams at Christmas but we will have them at our special time of the year.
