The priorities of schools lie elsewhere, says the minister, who asks for understanding for his decision. Teachers are working hard every day to get distance education done. In addition, the teacher's school advice was already leading for the entry level in secondary school. All students have already heard from their teacher what level they can attain at their new school in February. That advice is, according to the minister, based on years of image of a student.
We cannot expect students to take a normal final test under these circumstances
AObdirector Jelmer Evers agrees and thinks it is a wise decision. “We cannot expect students to take a normal final test under these circumstances. It is quite a task for teachers to realize lessons remotely and students receive lessons in a different way these weeks. Teachers have a very good understanding of where their students stand. Moreover, the organization would be too complicated to administer the test. ”
Right place
Slob late know that he asks secondary schools to pay close attention to whether the students are in the right place in the new school year. He makes further agreements on this with secondary education.
