The Sindh government has adopted a new grading system for matric and intermediate exams, aiming to bring the assessment process in line with international standards. This revised system will replace the traditional marks-based evaluation with a grade-based approach, focusing on a more holistic assessment of student performance. Education authorities believe the change will better reflect students' abilities and reduce pressure associated with high-stakes exams. #SindhEducation #NewGradingSystem #MatricExams #IntermediateExams #EducationReforms #dailydawns

Comment for LRT Panorama about disruptions in the school admission system. In short: the problem is not the lack of a centralized system, nor technical IT solutions (these are self-evident hygiene factors). The real problem is the disparity between schools. An education system that fails to ensure at least roughly similar quality of education forces parents to either pay double by choosing the private sector or manipulate and "play" the existing admission system. The state does not ensure uniform quality standards, resulting in social reproduction and stratification. #InstituteOfEducationalSciences #VUFsFUMI #VilniusUniversity #UgdymoMokslųInstitutas #VilniausUniversitetas https://lnkd.in/d5W8wmPB
