VIIIth grade students who are going to take the National Assessment are automatically registered for the exam by the secretariats of the schools where they study. Enrollment of children is done through a dedicated application. Therefore, parents do not have to fill out any application, do not bring documents or files with different documents to the secretariats of educational units. This, unlike the parents of students who give the Baccalaureate.
National Assessment 2024. Papers, digitally corrected
Starting this year, the papers of students taking the National Assessment exam will be digitally corrected. The exam papers will be scanned by the assistant professors, with the first unclassified page and the right corner unfolded. The platform automatically removes the first page of the work, the one that was scanned unclassified.
The resulting file after scanning will have two black pages in addition to the work: the first and the last. Assistant professors check that the pages are complete and legible. If there are pages that are not clear, the proofreaders will delete them and rescan the paper.
What rules will students have to follow?
