ArmInfo. 80% of school training process still remains outside the
evaluation system, Armenian Deputy Education Minister Manuk Lazarian
said at today's international conference dedicated to the quality of
education. Education sphere specialists from Armenia, Russia and the
World Bank took part in the conference.
'The problem of universal access of education has been raised in the
world. But I would not limit myself with it, as it is necessary to
ensure the universal access to the high quality education. This may
be done in case if every pupil is asked equally', - Lazarian said.
'We have recently transferred to the 10-ball system. The class
registers have been changed and teachers have started giving marks
to a pupil with another methodology. But during the single state
examinations the marks of pupils differed from their school marks
almost by 50%. That is to say, a pupil is given a mark twofold more
for one and the same exam', - he said.
He also added that the situation in school does not always reflect
the true process of training especially in high school. 'In Armenia
almost every pupil, who wants to enter higher education institution,
should be trained by a tutor...One may imagine the unbiased situation
of the training process at school taking into account this circumstance
too', - he added.
