Change the structure of periodic tests for high school students

From semester 2, school year 2024 - 2025, the Ministry of Education and Training (MOET) will change the structure of periodic tests for middle school and high school students.

The Ministry of Education and Training has just sent an official dispatch to the Departments of Education and Training to guide the implementation of innovation in testing and assessment for junior high and high school levels.

Students take the entrance exam to grade 10 of public high schools in Hanoi.

Accordingly, for subjects assessed by comments combined with scores, the Ministry of Education and Training requests that the Departments of Education and Training guide high school educational institutions to develop matrices, specifications, test questions and instructions for marking periodic tests to ensure professional and technical requirements (refer to the appendix sent by the Ministry of Education and Training), to be implemented from the second semester of the 2024-2025 school year.

According to the guidance of the Ministry of Education and Training, from the second semester of the 2024-2025 school year, the new matrix for periodic testing of subjects assessed by scores such as math, physics, chemistry, and biology will include 4 parts: Multiple choice test (3 points); true/false test (2 points); short answer test (2 points) and essay (3 points).

Thus, in the objective test (7 points), students must solve the following types of questions: Multiple choice (3 points); true-false (2 points); short answer (2 points).

The Ministry of Education and Training instructs that with "True - False" questions, each question will include 4 small ideas, for each idea students must choose true or false.

For “Short Answer” questions, for subjects that do not use this format, transfer all points to “True - False” format.

The Ministry of Education and Training requests that the Departments of Education and Training, based on the content of the training for core teachers in November 2024, organize training for managers and teachers of educational institutions implementing general education programs in their management areas.
