Minister of Education Sorin Cimpeanu announced on Monday that the semester averages, mandatory mid-term examinations will be dropped and only one general average will be required at the end of the school year, Agerpres reports.
According to the minister, it was agreed, together with the social dialogue partners, that the minimum number of grades for a school subject should be equal to N + 3, where N represents the number of hours allocated to a subject in a week.
"In other words, for a subject that has two hours a week, at least 5 grades will be required in a whole school year," explained Cimpeanu.
