Specifically, according to regulations, the disciplinary level of reprimand applies to candidates who make one-time mistakes such as looking at papers or exchanging papers with other candidates during the exam time. This form is decided by the invigilator and is recorded in the exam room.
The level of warning applies to candidates who have been reprimanded but continue to violate, exchange scratch papers or copy other people's papers, allowing others to copy their papers. This form of discipline is decided by the supervisor, with a record and accompanied by exhibits if any.
Candidates who are warned will be deducted 50% of the total score of the violating exam. See more...
Ministry of Education and Training: No requirement for elementary school students to have swimming certificates
Mr. T.P's son (HCMC) is a 5th grade student. He was informed by the school that when considering completing the primary school program, 5th grade students are required to have a swimming certificate. In case students do not have a swimming certificate, they will not be considered for completing the primary school program and will not be admitted to 6th grade.
Mr. P found that the current regulations on determining the completion of the primary school program of the Ministry of Education and Training do not require students to know how to swim or have a swimming certificate.
Mr. P asked, is the requirement for a swimming certificate a mandatory condition for considering completing the primary school program? Will students without a swimming certificate be affected by considering completing the primary school program and going to 6th grade?

The consideration of completing the primary school general education program is regulated in Article 11 of Circular No. 27/2020/TT-BGDĐT. In the primary school general education program, there is no requirement for swimming certificates. See more...
