Ministry of Education decided to maintain the tests that count towards the grade, in the traditional format, at the same time asking schools to test digital tests, before counting towards the grade. In the 9th year, exams will be taken on the computer.

Secondary students will still take their national exams this academic year in paper format.

According to Jornal Público , the Ministry of Education decided to keep the tests that count towards grades in the traditional format, at the same time asking schools to test digital tests before counting towards grades.

In the 9th year, the exams will be taken on the computer, as well as the assessment tests (carried out in the 2nd, 5th and 8th years).

According to the news from Público, the Institute for Educational Assessment (Iave), responsible for preparing the tests, will work, throughout the year, with all schools so that students and teachers can “familiarize themselves” with the digital format of the tests. exams.

“Items and model tests will be made available, allowing information to be collected to better calibrate future tests, not only in terms of the type of question, but also the duration”, explains the Minister of Education to the newspaper.
