Activists and aid groups estimate escalating violence in Papua's Highlands has displaced 2000 people since December.
Raga Kogeya, a humanitarian worker in Nduga, said children were afraid to take exams in conflict-ridden towns with a military presence.
Mr Kogeya told the Antara state news agency that around 200 students may not be able to take their exams, which start in April.
