The UPSR science paper scheduled for tomorrow has been postponed to September 30 due to leaks, a statement from the Education Ministry said.
The ministry's examination board said the science paper, with codes 018, 028 and 038, had been leaked online.
A statement issued today said that the questions were leaked through social media and that a report has been made with authorities to investigate the incident.
There are 472,853 Year Six pupils sitting for the UPSR examinations nationwide. The examinations began yesterday and were due to end tomorrow.
On the postponement, Education Minister II Datuk Seri Idris Jusoh tweeted: "I am deeply sorry for d leakage of the #UPSR Science questions."
Leakages of question papers in national examinations are reported almost every year.
Last year, a report was made after questions from the Mathematics and Additional Mathematics papers in the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia were allegedly leaked in a seminar.
But, police later rubbished the claims, saying that the questions were only forecasted ones.
