A committee reviewing the Territory-wide System Assessment (TSA) said on Wednesday that it needs at least another month before it can decide whether to suspend the test for primary three students next year.
Parents opposed to the TSA say it puts too much pressure on the children and some of them had hoped the government-appointed panel would announce its temporary cancellation.
But committee chairwoman and education deputy secretary, Catherine Chan, said two sub-working groups need to discuss various proposals before they can reach such a decision.
