The Minister of Education, Sports and Youth, Ms Athina Michailidou, participated today in the Parliamentary Committee on Education and Culture to discuss the issue of the amendment of the Regulations concerning the assessment of students in secondary education.

After the session, in a statement to journalists, the Minister said: "Today we completed the article-by-article discussion of the Bill on the assessment of students in secondary education, something we have been discussing for the last few months.

We are very satisfied with the process of discussing the Bill in the Education Committee of the House of Representatives. With some minor improvements to the text of the legislation, we believe that it will be submitted to the Plenary with the greatest possible consensus, after a serious dialogue with all stakeholders.

We believe that from September 2023-2024, if the Bill receives the approval of the Plenary, we will be able to have a modern, flexible and pedagogically sound System of Assessment of our students. From there we will be able to move on to improving other chronic issues in our education system, such as that relating to curriculum - to focus on the important, essential to the prerequisite curriculum for each class - teaching methods and, most importantly, the training of our teachers."
