Some schools in Norway have moved their exams so people can go to a Justin Bieber 'gig'

justin-bieber6-e1334142508810-250x244Five schools in Norway have moved the dates of their midterm exams so that some of the pupils can go to a Justin Bieber 'gig' in Oslo.

The schools in question are in the Alesund region, which you don't need us to tell you is over 230 miles away from the capital, raising fears that kids will bunk off to get there in time.

According to Sky News, Norway's Ministry of Education and Research said it's down to the school to decide when midterm exams should be.

The 'Turn to You (Mother's Day Dedication)' hitmaker is scheduled to perform in the capital on April 16 and 17.
