MINISTER OF EDUCATION AND SCIENCE ANNOYED AT “DISSIDENTS” IN THE SYSTEM

This year the school leaving ceremonies are going to be held on June 10. “This year we are also going to have modest ceremonies expressing the past 10 years at school. The Ministry doesn’t prohibit anything to anyone, and I ask the managers and teachers at your schools not to seek for any other explanations,” Minister of Education and Science Sergo Yeritsyan said during the meeting with the head of Board of regional education today.
The Minister was a bit annoyed at the fact that school principals and workers of the Board often discuss questions that have long ago been discussed and passed by Government resolution. “If one is against something how is he going to hold a reform? It’s quite another thing if they say, for example, that they have difficulties concerning this or that question,” the Minister said.
However, the finals will end on June 28 and either June 30 or 31 will be the days of handing over the school-leaving certificates.
Concerning finals and entrance exams the Minister mentioned that no meaningful changes are going to be made. That is to say, unlike last year, neither new points will be added nor excluded form the book of questionnaires for entrance exams.
To note, the Minister mainly touched upon such technical questions omitting the fundamental question concerning progress in studies. And as a result we have what we have.
