Ministry of Education mobilizes university lecturers to inspect the 2020 high school graduation exam
To ensure the honesty and objectivity of this year's high school graduation exam, Chief Inspector of the Ministry of Education and Training Nguyen Duc Cuong said that inspection and examination at three levels (ministry, province, department) are carried out at all stages.
According to Mr. Nguyen Duc Cuong, the Ministry of Education and Training has recently announced the draft regulations for the high school graduation exam to gather public opinions. The big difference this year is that university staff and lecturers will not be mobilized to participate in the exam supervision and grading.
However, the 2020 high school graduation exam will have the participation of provincial inspection forces.
3 levels of inspection
Mr. Cuong said that this year, the Ministry of Education and Training directed and organized the inspection and examination work to be strengthened, according to the following principles: Clearly defining the responsibilities in the inspection/examination of the stages of the exam for the Ministry, Provincial People's Committees, and Departments of Education and Training; The inspection/examination must comply with the provisions of law; Ensuring practicality, effectiveness and feasibility.
Inspection and examination at 3 levels (ministries, provinces, departments) are carried out at all stages of the exam, at local examination councils, examination sites, examination rooms, etc.
Mr. Cuong said that this year, although university staff and lecturers were not mobilized to participate in exam proctoring and grading, this force was still mobilized to participate in exam inspection work.
