The 10th grade entrance exam in Hanoi will take place on June 7 and 8, with the participation of nearly 103,000 candidates.
At the conference on guiding the exam invigilation held on June 3, Mr. Tran The Cuong, Director of the Hanoi Department of Education and Training, requested the team participating in organizing the exam to enhance their sense of responsibility, coordinate synchronously and proactively respond to all situations with the spirit of ensuring the rights of candidates.
At the conference, nearly 700 test site heads and deputy test site heads of 201 test sites across the city, along with support staff, were briefed on details related to test invigilation. New points in the organization were given special attention, emphasizing the principles of "3 no's, 4 right's and 6 clear's".
Specifically, the "3 no's" include: Do not be negligent or subjective; do not be too stressed or pressured; do not arbitrarily handle situations beyond your authority. The "4 right" includes following the regulations and instructions correctly; following the process and procedures; following the correct position and responsibilities; handling situations according to instructions. The "6 clear" includes clearly who is doing it, clearly what is done, clearly what is responsible, clearly what is authorized, clearly what is time, and clearly what is the result.
The head of the examination site plays a key role and is fully responsible for the organization of the examination site. During each examination session, the head of the examination site must collect all electronic devices of the invigilators and organize the proper storage of items that candidates are not allowed to bring into the examination room. A noteworthy point is that the examination paper bag marked "Original" at the examination site can only be opened for verification in case of complaints or doubts about the examination paper.
Hanoi has arranged 201 official examination sites with more than 4,400 examination rooms, along with a system of backup examination sites in districts, towns and cities to be ready to handle unexpected situations such as bad weather, power outages, or other objective factors. More than 15,000 officers, teachers and staff have been mobilized to perform examination invigilation, service and technical support duties. Nearly 1,000 police officers have also been assigned to ensure security and safety at examination sites and surrounding areas.
