Is omission considered lying?

In 2009, I graduated with BBA and I joined teaching. As a teacher, I went through a Post-graduate diploma and got a 3.4/5.

In the application, they stated include "Please list your university qualifications in chronological order starting from your highest qualification. You do not need to key in your pre-university qualifications.". Can I don't include my 3.4/5 as it is very bad? I am sure that the local adcom will know I has gone through the Post-graduate diploma

Instead of omitting it, you can list your "major GPA" or a GPA from lets say your junior year if you did some slacking off in your first years of school.

If you don't include it, they will probably just assume it's terrible.

 

Because I have a business degree which is quite good (4.3/5), can I don't list the post graduate diploma at all, even when they ask me to fill "Please list your university qualifications in chronological order starting from your highest qualification. You do not need to key in your pre-university qualifications."?
