The fifth-eighth graders with poor results at school will no longer be left to repeat a year of study. The repeating of the year was excluded from general education following changes made to the regulations concerning the assessment and grading of students in primary and secondary education, IPN reports, quoting a press release of the Ministry of Education, Culture and Research.
Under other amendments, all the first-fourth graders will be assessed by descriptors, while the fifth-twelfth graders by descriptors in the subjects: Education for Society, Musical Education, Plastic Education, Technological Education, Physical Education, and Personal Development.
At the suggestion of the National Students Council, the grading of students for behavior at lessons, not doing the homework, not bringing notebooks or textbooks, supplies and the student journal to the lesson and for being absent from classes, including from test papers, was excluded.
