DRC: English to Be Introduced as Oral Exam in Baccalaureate from 2026
Kinshasa, DRC - The Ministry of National Education and New Citizenship has announced that an oral English exam will be officially introduced in the baccalaureate starting in 2026. The reform will apply to all humanities tracks and aims to strengthen English proficiency among Congolese students, in line with Framework Law No. 14/004 of February 11, 2014, governing national education.
Exam boards for the oral English test will follow the same model as the oral French exam, with equivalent weighting, and results will be recorded using form “E80.” Authorities describe the move as a significant step toward modernizing the Congolese education system and better preparing young people for a globalized academic and professional environment.
