Teachers at some high schools are already finalizing student grades, although there are still three weeks left until the end of the semester!
High school students and older primary school students across Serbia switched to online classes since yesterday, and in some subjects, high school students’ grades ended with just two grades so far.
The messenger was approached by the parents of several high school students, mostly from the Architectural Technical School (ATS), and an economics student from Belgrade, whose children were graded in various subjects last week, although they have classes until the 18th. December, when winter break begins.
– Fortunately, my son got a four and a five for the subject for which his grade was completed, and his final grade for the first semester was five. But what if the teacher completes a lower grade for him and the child doesn’t get a chance to fix things with the third grade? Marija R., the mother of a high school student from Belgrade, complained to us.
ATS director Zorica Ranchic told Kurir that only two final grades have been proposed so far, noting that nowhere in the law is it said that grading must be concluded in the last week of the semester.
– At the same time, the professor of the subject does not conclude the grade, but gives his proposal, after which the class council concludes the grade based on that proposal. In any case, the student has the opportunity to answer before the last day of the semester if he wants to correct the note. Undoubtedly, it is the recommendation of the Ministry of Education that students who are not satisfied with the grade can come to the school to answer. So even if grades from the previous days have been finalized for some students, they can certainly correct them for the last day of the semester if they wish, Rančić noted.
He also stated that the grades were previously concluded based on four grades per subject, that is, two per subject that the student has once a week. However, the Grading Regulation was changed in the last school year due to the emergency situation caused by the coronavirus, and it is allowed to conclude grades under extraordinary circumstances based on the number of grades below four or two.
– In any case, parents are always free to ask me everything that interests them, I answer everyone by phone and e-mail, and I think it is incorrect that they have addressed the media on this occasion before me – he concluded.
Milorad Antic, president of the Forum of Professional Secondary Schools, is surprised by this behavior.
– I don’t know where someone got the idea to finalize the qualifications now. Each student must be able to demonstrate their knowledge. It is an inhuman attitude towards the student – said by Kurir.
ALL THE RULES OF ONLINE TEACHING
- Anything that does not arrive or classes that cannot be arranged during distance education will carry over to the second semester.
- Students will be informed five days before the knowledge test.
- All assignments and written controls that last more than 15 minutes are carried out at the school, respecting all epidemiological measures.
- To date, teachers must prepare a list of all written assignments and tests and post a schedule for each class on the bulletin board and on the school website.
- If, due to illness, the student was unable to attend online classes, they may be underestimated.
- It is possible to improve the grades. The assessment based on an oral achievement test can be carried out exceptionally at school, if the student is not satisfied with the proposal for the final assessment.
MINISTRY OF EDUCATION
I can have two degrees
The teachers of the subject propose final grades at the end of the semester, and at the end of the class session they conclude grades, they stated in the Kurir Ministry of Education and added:
– The number of grades may be less than four, that is, less than two depending on the weekly class fund. If students are not satisfied with the completed grades, they can respond at school regarding the measures.
