From October 15: Begin evaluating primary school students in a new way

From today, October 15, all primary schools nationwide officially apply the new assessment method according to the regulations in Circular No. 30/2014/TT-BGDDT.

Instead of giving scores as before during regular assessment at school, teachers will evaluate students by comments (through direct speech, written on students' papers/notebooks). Scoring is only applied at the end of the first semester and the end of the school year for tests in the following subjects: Vietnamese, math, science, history and geography, foreign languages, information technology, ethnic languages ​​(if any).

At the end of the 2014-2015 school year, primary schools will have to conduct acceptance and handover of the quality of education for students in all grades. In particular, for students in grades 1, 2, 3, and 4, the principal is responsible for directing the homeroom teacher, teachers who teach in the same class, and teachers who will take over the class in the following school year to jointly create periodic tests at the end of the school year and participate in proctoring and grading tests.

For 5th grade students, the principal directs the professional team to create periodic tests at the end of the school year for the whole grade; organizes the invigilation and grading of tests with the participation of teachers from the secondary school that will accept students into 6th grade.
