  • Method 2 — Ministry of Education Website: The Ministry of Education portal at moe.gov.ly will also provide a direct link to the results inquiry system, offering an alternative access point to reduce server load during peak traffic hours.

Background and Context

The 2025–2026 academic year in Libya saw over 200,000 students sit for their preparatory certificate examinations across all regions, including Tripoli, Benghazi, Misrata, Sabha, and other municipalities. The exams were conducted under the supervision of local education monitoring offices with enhanced security measures to prevent cheating.

The preparatory certificate represents a critical milestone in Libya's education system, determining students' eligibility for secondary education pathways. With the results announcement approaching, the Ministry has urged schools and educational institutions to prepare for the next academic phase.

Last week, the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Education for Monitoring Affairs, Dr. Muhsen Al-Kabir, inspected the progress of secondary school examinations in the Zawiya municipality, demonstrating the Ministry's commitment to oversight and quality assurance across all examination levels.

Caution Against Fraudulent Links

The Ministry of Education has issued a warning against unofficial websites and social media pages claiming to offer early access to examination results. Parents and students are urged to only use the official portals announced by the National Examination Center and the Ministry of Education.

Recent weeks have seen a surge in fraudulent pages on Facebook and other platforms claiming to provide "early results" in exchange for personal data. The Ministry clarified that no results will be released before the official July 19 announcement date, and any claims of early access should be treated as fraudulent.

For verified updates, students and parents are advised to follow the Ministry of Education's official Facebook page and the National Examination Center's announcements through mainstream Libyan news outlets.
